On Youtube

As some of you may know I gave up my broadband Internet connection a number of years ago due to a problem with my provider. Dial-up worked passably well for several years. With much patience I could watch Youtube videos up to about 3 minutes long. Beyond that just took too long. In the last year and a half things started going really bad. I couldn't download updates for programs, because the service would kick me off before the download was finished. Couldn't get Youtube to work at all for most of this year. I probably would have muddled on, but my dial-up provider had a major glitch, I began intermittently losing service altogether, and I decided I'd had enough.

My new broadband service works considerably better than the old one I had years ago. It isn't the fastest serivce available, but it works plenty fast for me.
