Why dial-up internet sucks..
Ok, if you haven't determined it by the title of this entry, I hate dial-up. I hate everything about it. It's constricting, restricting, and many other words I'd prefer not to type out right now... :)
I spent the past 4 weeks on an away rotation with no access to the internet other than (gasp) dial-up. I just can't deal with that. The internet is no longer designed to be user friendly for people without high speed access. With the rich media content of the internet, slow access is no longer acceptable.
As such, I feel now is the time to push for universal access to affordable high speed internet access. Whether wireless wide-area networks, dsl, cable, or fibre-optic - it doesn't matter to me. The internet has become a staple of our society, and as such we need to ensure everyone has equal access to it.
Besides, dial-up just sucks.
