What the world is waiting for

by taoski on May 14, 2006

SkypeI just had my first Skype conversation with our commonwealth friends, down under in Perth. Our two children went to school together for a few years and we became quite close.

And who ever invented Skype needs to be shaken by the hand. A piece of software that allows the two kids to attack each other with karate punches and toy guns across the globe?

It's what the internet was invented for!

Nildram

by taoski on April 10, 2006

Does anyone have any experioence with Nildram as an ISP?

I am still with AOL who I went with after moving house and having to cancel my BT Internet account. Instead of just moving the service from one house to another, they insist that you cancel your account and then re-apply at the new house! Even though the previous owner of my new property was also with BT Internet!

Also, at the time, AOL were (pretty much) the only provider with no download limits, which BT were just bringing into force. My "downloading" action is no way near as bad as it used to be though. Nildram offer up-to 8mb broadband with a 50gb per month download limit. I think it should be enough for what I need I suppose.

Although, my mate has a ratio on torrent site where his upload is over 1 Terrabyte! His download amount is something pretty scary too! Might see what ISP he is with. Can't remember off hand although I set it up for him.

So. Any experience with Nildram , let me know. Or can you recommend a good ISP that won't release the dogs on me if I decide to download more that 1mb a month?
