RE: Re: This is NOT a thread for Yahoo whinging, just some interesting stats



Hi…

 

Oops – apologies, I tend to not snip the messages as I should do … it’s a ‘bad habit’ really.. – and as I’m at work, the connection speed isn’t really a limiting factor for me at the moment ..

 

Nah, not taken personally… I’ll try and remember to snip messages!

 

Kind regards,

Jonathan.

Another interesting stat:

In my last post (in reply to Stuart's post) I cut all but the line I
was responding to and then added my comment. The resultant post was
2Kb.

Looking up the list a few posts is one from Jonathan Tawn (sorry
Jonathan, I'm not picking on you it is just an example) where the
history of the thread (a few posts deep) has been kept. His message
is 57Kb.

We have had this debate before, and I know it is always easier to
just type and send without snipping. But with our average message
size of 5Kb we have 15 months until we hit the limit. We wouldn't
last 2 months if every message was 50Kb!

Graham

P.S. The arguement has shifted from one of bandwidth to one of
storage, now message size could potentially affect us all, not just
those with slow connections.
