Bandwidth Troubles, June 2009 Edition

Some of you may have noticed my blog went down again for a couple of hours last night. Looks like that sample HD video I put up for my review of the Canon Powershot SX200 compact camera ate up a fair bit of bandwidth. The file itself was just 60MB but it still ended up eating a total of 7.5GB, ending my quota for June! Fortunately, it was once again close to the end of the month. Yet another coincidence?

It really doesn't look like my current hosting plan is fit for downloads ^^;

Anyway, haven't been posting much lately because there hasn't been much to write about for me. That and I'm busy translating the FFVII On the Way to a Smile stories along with something else...

Why not take a break?

That's OK. I uploaded it for people to view after all ; )

It's pretty common for visitors to be passive I think. I know a few other blogs that have millions of hits (views) daily but still only get a few hundred comments on their posts so, it's not just mine.

But my thanks to everyone who have commented so far. Really appreciated!

Wait. By hits you mean views? You got 14500 hits on said blurred article? If so, that's mad! - More people should comment....

Plus; Yay Canon! I have an old 350D & a' IXUS 70. Wide angle lenses are da' Bomb! My 350D sports a nice 10-22mm.

- If it helps, I didn't watch the Video. : )

That's what I'm thinking too... Wasn't really expecting that many people downloading the sample clip from my blog ^^;

Maybe you should just upload it to Megaupload or a similar hosting service.
