Just How Fast is My Internet Connection

Where I live is what can only be described as a valley and a number of factors that I will be explaining below mean that communications seem to be a little bit of an issue. I have a connection to the internet but I am left asking just how fast is my internet connection.

When I first moved in I was delighted to find out that the company that maintain the grounds offer their own phone and internet service and you just call them up and they come round and install it for you. However this comes at a cost and I find out that it is a high cost because it is double that of a standard line and internet connection, half the speed double the price! Hmmm I think not!

So being in an area where I can get one of the new WIMAX (wireless broadband) I call up and they send an engineer who sits scratching his head and tells me there is a mountain in the way. "If its a problem then just move it!" I joke as he heads for the door. So that kills off yet another idea and I am left with the option of a mobile connection using 3G technology.

The 3G technology proves to be a hit but there are a few downfalls, there are times when 3G isn't available and at this time I am left asking just how fast is my internet connection when I don't have my super speed?

I am somewhat gutted to find that my connection is less than that of the old dial up connection after running the speed test so I begin to look around for a way to make that go faster when I don't have my fast connection.

There are ways of making your internet connection faster when you have a slow link but the first thing I had to do was to ask myself just how fast is my internet connection.

How Fast is my internet connection? Looking at speed tests and making things go faster.

Broadband - Will it Affect Your Online Marketing Future?

The coming age of general Broadband use bearing down upon us, minute by minute, is going to leave many changes in its wake. Some will be welcome; others will demand all we can do, just to keep up!

Of course, items like high quality graphics, streaming video and movies on demand will be commonplace. On the other hand, Broadband spells the end of most common text-only websites. Let's face it: the consumer wants more! Offering a good deal with high quality service won't do it anymore.

Websites that cater to the newfound appetite for quality audio and video content will get the sale. Obviously, that makes perfect sense! It brings to mind an experience I had while learning Photoshop. I purchased a very big manual and it took me three weeks just to get my feet wet. A good friend bought a video tutorial and arrived at my level of skill in two days!

There are many other things audio and video can explain better and in much shorter time than text, as in the example above. We're not talking just innovation; but also, the very deep and long-lasting impact the technology is going to produce.

I was reading an informative article written by Darrin Coe, titled "The Internet Consumer Exposed." It's a piece compiled from larger studies of the habits and lifestyles of Internet centered consumers. By the conclusions reached in the item, it does appear the consumer will smile upon the coming Broadband changes. Here is Darrin's website: http://dcoe1.tripod.com/exposed1/

There are some Marketers actively staking out their Broadband future. One that comes to mind is Jim Edwards. Jim is also a well known writer and syndicated newspaper columnist and - not to mention - a very pleasant person.

A week or so ago, I received an email from Jim inviting me to witness the birth of his new multimedia Newsletter "I Gotta tell You." I was speechless! Very seldom do we get to watch one of the early events giving birth to a revolution! It is content delivery that's light years away and will only get better and better. Good work Jim!

Another application that's blazing a trail into Broadband is the Instant Video Generator sold by Armand Morin, Alex Mandossian and Rick Raddatz. Though they claim it works as well with a dial up connection, I can see it carving out a big chunk of the Broadband market. I've gone to the website and viewed a few presentations. It does seem to work quite well! The buffering is almost instantaneous and the quality very good. Here is the website: http://instantvideogenerator.com

Conclusion

Start taking the necessary steps to get on the multimedia bandwagon or suffer the same fate as the dinosaurs! Broadband dominance will become an inescapable reality of the very near future. As Stark Trek's Borg say: "Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated!"
