erm, what now?

It just occurred to me...

For years now I've been stuck on a crappy modem dial up connection. Now I have broadband. Now I have all this speed available to me, what the hell do I do with it?

So far all I've done is patch everything in sight

Google for Atom Films (part of Shockwave.com), download Maven, and watch some high definition movies. Also, download and watch the entire 1st & 2nd series of Angry Kid.

Oh - The Azureus bittorrent client is my current preferred one.

I've only really tried the original client, which kinda nuked the work's connection for a while, and bittornado, which allows you to put limits on upload/download speeds

Azureus allows you to limit it as well, and has lots of other options too.
