The thing that shits me is that my 20 gig 8M ADSL 1 plan is the same price asn the 40 gig ADSL2+ plan.

I wish I could get 2+ out in the sticks.

[kralster]

^^^

same it costs me more for standard adsl cos i can't get 2+ down in victor.

Thats due to telstra's fee's for phone lines. Not a lot they can do though. The ACCC want them to rent out lines for cheaper than they can afford to maintain them in the interest of "competition"

wooohoooo finally all my nights sitting in front of my PC is starting to pay off. I'm a "silent" partner in a UK media company, We specialize in web design, 3d modeling, graphics and advertising. I mainly do all the 3dmodeling for the company, and am not named on the website (mainly due to the fact i work for a rival company as well ). The majority (well all) of our customers are involved in Motorsport over in Europe. We have started to sponsor the Roll Centre Le Mans Prototype (rear of the car next to the love heart logo) and the Moore Racing Dodge Viper from the British GT series.

We are also working on a small "addon" for GTR2 of the British GT series with full co operation from all the BGT teams and access to all the cars on race week ends. Pitty I can't afford to go over there

[Madaz]

[Whiplash]

unfortunately the majority of work i am doing is all very secret (had to sign 3-4 Non Disclosure Agreements)

so here are a few i have done for myself (so the quality is down on my commercial work)

I'm not really one who believes in these "pay as you surf" programs ever since AllAdvantage way back in the late 90's early 00's as I did actually get a check from them but this program called Agloco was started up by the same founders of AllAdvantage and seems pretty interesting. Basically they pay you to have a little bar sitting at the bottom of your browser window to surf the net. I recently joined and didn't find the bar too offensive, it's small and out of the way really; of course I only installed it on my test machine just incase but what do you guys think about it?

[Madaz]

are you ment to get paid for surfing websites they support ?

[heslo]

No, just for surfing the web, they show little ads in the bar that you download, that's about it. Still not 100% on it actually, might turn out to be a crock of shit, but if it is, it's not like I've lost any time on it anyway, would have been on the net regardless

[Madaz]

true well i tried to sign up under your code but server timed out

[heslo]

Yeah, they have been getting hit pretty hard the last day or so with new members and hence site access is kinda slow, all I can recommend is keep trying every now and then, you will get through

[Madaz]

ive got about half way through your sig heslo will take another look @ it tonight

[heslo]

Ah cheers Steve! Able to get a sneak preview?
