New Internet Speed

I am spoiled. I know this, and am okay with it. I mean, who doesn't like being spoiled?

I'm not talking about material things, or getting everything I want. I'm not talking about my husband doing every little thing I ask of him. I am talking about my internet connection.

Okay, keep laughing, but try and let me explain.

I used to have dial up. This was when I first discovered the internet about six years ago. I know, I missed out on a lot not being online, but before that I was raising kids and working, and I didn't have time for myself at all. After using dial up for a while, my phone company came out with DSL. I was so excited that I could be online and talk on the phone at the same time. It was heaven, or at least that is what I thought.

Until the day we decided to get cable. Before this, the kids were young enough that they didn't care if they watched Nick or Disney Channel. When we called to get our cable installed, our local cable company told us about their package deal, where we could get cable, phone and internet through them, for one low, monthly bill. We said sure, and that is when I fell in love with Charter.

Their phone and cable service is great, but their internet speed is what my love is based on. It is so fast. I don't have to wait to be connected like with dial up. I don't have to wait for pages to load. It's almost instantaneous. Right now, I have their highest broadband connection. I didn't think it could get any better than this.

Until today.

This morning I read about Charter’s Ultra60 Mbps service. It is not available in my area yet, but I can not wait until it is. It is one of their new PhatBand speeds, and it makes gaming and watching movies online better. I am constantly multi-tasking online, and would love a faster speed. It would probably make dropping my ecards a whole lot easier. I am not all that good at explaining the technical stuff, so check out the Ultra60 Information Page if you have questions about this new service. I hope it is available in my area soon.

To keep up with all things Charter, follow Charter’s Twitter Feed. I think I am one of the few people left in the world who aren't addicted to Twitter. Yet.
