"Millions of Australians are paying up to $100 a month for high speed internet but getting just half of what they pay for.
Ground breaking research has found the average speed delivered by companies such as Telstra, Optus and AAPT is almost half the figure advertised, making Australia a broadband backwater.
The report, by global broadband authority Epitiro, revealed Australians received an average 65.5% of the advertised download speed from their internet service providers.
Speeds slumped to just 14.5% when downloading content from international servers, while Telstra managed just 8.7% of its advertised package speed when downloading from international servers."
Already this country is killing me with its lacklustre internet service and speed. I have to deal with the minimal 5gb of data download a month, add to that lousy speed and ridiculously high prices, sure makes me want to tap RMIT wireless that much more.
Now here's an interesting read I got from the local paper MX.
"The claws are out when it comes to friendships between women. Bitching, backstabbing and bust-ups seem to inevitably rear their ugly heads.
Women secretly hate each other. The fairer sex generally does not want to see other women doing well, whether it's a celebrity, a colleague, or a mate.
In short: To other women, she is a threat.
I wished I had the type of friendships men seem able to make with other men. They have a string of mates who have been in their lives for decades and are genuinely dependable, fun and won't develop inappropriate feelings for their significant others.

Well now guys, doesn't that make you feel that much more valuable?
