Broadband speed survey
Posted by Chris under Broadband, Technology, Uncategorized
Pew’s Internet research has done past reports on US broadband usage. This year they want to add to the data and you can help. How?
Well, they want to see the speeds that the American population is using for their internet connections. And with the recent premium/metered pricing tests by Comcast and others it’s even more important to see if we’re getting what we’re paying for.
So if you are interested participate in the the Broadband Census, which is being overseen by Drew Clark, a telecommunications and technology journalist. Visit BroadbandCensus.com . Once you are on the census page, you’ll be asked to give some information about your broadband connection and then have your connection’s speed tested.
After you participate you can also see what other people are reporting for their speed, so you give and get.
Questions on the study can be directed to Lee Rainie, Director - Pew Internet & American Life Project.
As a side note I’d recommend signing up for their email list. The research that Pew provides is free, quite relevant and helpful.
