Speed Up Your PC
6 Ways to Boost-Up Your PC
No matter how quickly your computer moves, especially on the Internet, it could always move faster. :-)
Email, web surfing, downloading files (legally of course), switching between applications... none of them ever go as quickly as we want or expect.
Well, let me do my part to perpetuate this "microwave oven" mentality (why must popcorn take 3 ‡ minutes instead of 2?) by giving you some tips and hints for making your online experiences and overall computing as fast as possible (even on a dial up connection).
Hit The Accelerator
Sensing a need for faster Internet access in markets where broadband cable or DSL can´t or won´t go, Internet Service Providers (ISP´s) like NetZero offer Internet "accelerators."
Using a system of caches, compression schemes, and other technology to double or even triple your dial-up connection speeds, Internet accelerators can save you hours spent waiting for simple web pages to appear in your browser.
Though they won´t work for everyone in every single situation, check out www.netzero.com, www.propel.com and www.slipstreamdata.com for more information.
