International Connectivity
Steve Suppe writes "As an American who is going to be living overseas for a few years (Germany, to be more exact), I'm curious as to what advice/information Slashdot could provide people like me. How much can I expect to pay for dial-up/broadband, and from who? I'd be interested to hear how it differs around the world. Any good reference sites? Thanks!"
Man, you're going to Europe, and your big question is how do I stay connected? Here's some better advice
Visit the Champagne region in France, the caves are incredible
Go to Paris and visit the Louvre and the Jeu de Pomme, and the L'Orangerie, and the Musee D'Orsay and the Pompidoux, and probably a hundred other museums
Go to Munich and visit the Science museum there.
If you're in Strasbourg, go eat a Tarte Flambee
Soak in the culture, don't waste your time online!
Just my two centimes
My other sig is extremely clever...
