End of Day: 28th August

August 28th, 2008 at 05:44 pm by Tamlyn Rhodes

Until today, the only way I could get my personal laptop online when at the office was by using my mobile phone as a modem and and using its data connection. It seemed kinda funny that I was sat in the head office of a major ISP and I couldn’t even get wifi access! Anyway we got it working properly today so I can be more mobile - yay! More…

End of Day: 27th August

August 27th, 2008 at 07:00 pm by Colin Ogilvie

What day is it? I’m confused… what with Bank Holiday Monday, and me being doing two half days over Tuesday and Wednesday, and I’ve lost all track of what day it is. Thankfully, my computer tells me it’s Wednesday, so I guess that means it is… Ah well, two days til Friday :D

End of Day: 22nd August

August 22nd, 2008 at 06:09 pm by Dave Tomlinson

Another week draws to a close and so it’s time for the final end of day for this week. We also have the bank holiday this week and a little bit of research we’ve seen suggests that around two thirds of people will be staying home over the weekend because of a combination of the current economic climate, the weather forecast and fuel prices.

Bolt's 200m Record an iPlayer Hit

August 20th, 2008 at 05:11 pm by Dave Tomlinson

Congratulations to Jamaica’s Usain Bolt who has just added the 200m Olympic gold to his collection with a new world record time of 19.3s.

Plusnet customers “tuned in” via the BBC’s iPlayer to see the victory; we saw an increase in traffic from iPlayer of around 250Mbps just before the start of the race going from just under 700Mbps to 934Mbps falling just short of yesterday’s high of 954Mbps of iPlayer traffic. More…
