December 2005


Over the last couple on months we heard here in SA how Telkom and other telecoms players in this country wants to increase the broadband penetration.  The figure of 2%-15% of Internet User gets bandied around — how pathetic when one looks at the following.

UK broadband usage is up! The latest National Statistics monthly update to the survey of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) has shown that in October of this year, broadband connections formed 58.9 per cent of all Internet connections. This is an increase up from 57.3 per cent in September 2005. Dial-up connections have continued to decline, and now make up 41.1 per cent of all Internet connections.

I have started to use Performancing to do my Blogs and must say it works a lot easier. Can now post directly to my own hosted WordPress blog from within any FireFox browser session without going to my Blog admin page. Update: Hopefully I will now keep this blog more up to date since it is so easy to do.
