Internet service providers not keeping up with user trends
[Commentary] There's a revolution happening on the Internet — though broadband providers have not seemed to notice. Thanks to new gadgets, programs and Web services, consumers are sending, sharing and swapping more data than ever over the global network. Yet many are stuck with Internet connections that give them upload speeds much slower than download speeds. What that means is that it takes a lot longer to send a movie or picture out to the Internet than it takes to download the same file. Uploading a video, a roll of pictures or a backup of key files on your hard drive can take hours, or even days. But broadband companies seem oblivious to this trend. Here's hoping broadband providers join the revolution and make faster upload speeds an option soon.
