Battling the Bandwidth Blues

Share

Once again, this PCS has brought up another good news - bad news type of situation. The good news is that we have figured out a way to have internet at our house at a price we can afford. The bad news is that we only get 300 MB a day, and then the price shoots up dramatically. I am thankful that we can communicate with friends and family, and I can do my job.

I don't want to go over my allowance (but I would like to use nearly all of it every day), so I'm looking for suggestions from those of you who might have similar situations or just generally be smart about this stuff: What tactics can I use to make sure that I use my allowance well? Can I adjust settings on my computer to make sure that I'm not accidentally using extra kb when I don't mean to?

Surely I am not the only person in this situation, and I am hoping you can help. Thanks in advance - I would be so lonely without the internet and y'all, my imaginary friends.
