My internet usage jumped from 1 GB per month to 5 GB.
My girlfriend moved in and she uses Facebook + Myspace a lot.
Neither of us has downloaded videos, music, software ISOs
and such big items. I heard that many contemporary websites
eat up 1 or 2 MB per hour with rotating ads and refresh
and such crap. Also that they are unusable on a dialup
connection. Is there anybody who monitors the popular
websites and issues bandwidth hog ratings?
