I have been using high speed internet for about three months now, and I have to
say that I have never been more happy with my web browsing experience. I tried
many internet service providers before, but mostly I was using AOL dial up You
see, there was no high speed internet in my area. I live in what you might very
well call the boonies. This is a one horse town if there ever was one – just a
strip of stores for downtown on the main drag, and then you are through. But the
interstate coming through changed everything. Soon there were new restaurants
opening, a booming population and better economy, and of course, AOL broadband
internet.
I have to say that now that I have tried AOL for broadband, I would never go
back to my old dial up service. Compared to AOL broadband internet, I think that
it would be almost unbearably slow and poky. I mean, now that I am using AOL
broadband internet I can download flash animation, check my email, and go on my
MySpace page thirty times a day to see if anyone has given me a message. I mean,
when I was using normal AOL dial up, the best that I could do was email, and
maybe some text based news pages and blogs. But with AOL broadband internet, I
can really access anything that the internet has to offer, which is the whole
point, after all.
Recently, however, I have thought about trying other high speed internet
services. It isn't that I don't like AOL broadband internet, because I
definitely do. It is just that there are so many options available, I feel that
I had better try out some other stuff. I have heard that Yahoo dsl is offering
something like thirteen bucks a month for high speed dsl internet, and that is
much better than what I am paying now. There are some people who stick with AOL
broadband internet through thick and thin, but they are usually not all that
internet literate. They are just under the impression that there are no other
options at all that are available, so they stick with what they have always been
using. But in reality, there are many other Internet service providers that
provide the same or better performance, at least as far as I have heard. I
figure I had better check it out myself.
