You need to visit a website loaded with pictures, animations and music. You click on the link. You go and put on the coffee. You wait. When it's done, you pour yourself some and carry it to your desk. You take a sip. It needs more sugar. You go back and stir it in. Take another sip. Yes, it's good. Pour some more. Carry it back again. Hmmm, the page is only half loaded yet. Ok, time to go back and make a sandwich.

Does the above describe your experience with the Internet? If yes, read on. See if the following checklist of symptoms applies to your situation.

1. You have built a mental list of websites you can't visit they'd take ages to load.

2. You compose your e-mails beforehand in a word processor, and then connect via dial-up and copy-paste the whole thing into your web-based email service's 'compose' page. There's no sense in trying to write/edit your text online, on a slow, timed connection.

3. You've heard fairy tales about all the goodies the Internet has to offer you. You never go near them. They weren't really meant for you.

4. You have developed this habit of avoiding links to music, videos, pictures etc., because your connection just isn't good enough for them.

5. You ask your friends not to send you pictures or large attachments via e-mail because they take hours to get downloaded, and often your connection breaks halfway through and you have to reconnect and start all over again.

Does the above more or less accurately describe your relationship with the internet?

Then it's time for you to forget obsolete dial-up technology and move to something that'll really let you 'surf' the web at blazing speeds, instead of dragging yourself through it. Yes, you know about DSL and cable, but these never seem to arrive in your area. Of course, the connection needs to be affordable too. You have heard great things of satellite Internet, but aren't those things too expensive?

Not now. Not any more.

Now, there's WildBlue.
