Are you sponsoring anyone for 40 hour famine?
I thought I’d give my sister some free advertising for a good cause. Here’s her message
Monitor your internet bandwidth live from your computer
As I goto this snow season, i have signed up on a optus 3g plan @ $23.95 a month for 200mb. This means I have to be very careful how much bandwidth I’m using as once I go over it will cost me a fortune.
I have found the following tools useful:
Netlimiter: Free version lets you see how much each application is using and statistics on how much in total you have downloaded per hour, per day, per month etc..
DU Meter: Everything that netlimiter does but more! Although this is a paid version for $24.95
How to Connect your computer to the internet with a nokia via telstra’s nextG network
First Method:
1. First install the latest nokia pc suite.
2. Make sure your phone is connected to the computer via cable or bluetooth.
3. click the connect to internet icon.
4. Go into configure.
5. Click next and then specify you want to set up the connection manually.
6. As the access point, put telstra.internet if your using just normal pay as you go internet or telstra.datapack if you are using a datapack.
7. Leave all the other fields blank, click the tick and connect!
2nd Method:
1. Create a dialup account in windows and setup the nokia phone as a modem, just dial “*99#” and your away.
I prefer the first method as i already have nokia pc suite installed, if you don’t you probably should try method 2 :)
What’s better than surfing?
That hot 15 minute shower when you get home, priceless.
I went surfing on my new board today with a crazy aussi. I bought my board on ebay for $40. Bargain for how good it is!
Atheists listen to this guy.
From the indescribable DVD.
"In the beginning God created the heavens and earth. I love that! Some people think it was the big bang, I’m ok with that too. I think When God created the heavens and the earth it was a fairly large bang. I think it was quite an event going on when God created the heaven and the earth."
