Techie tips: Bandwidth exceeded!

March 31, 2007

An early morning shocker
This morning when I opened my blog, I was surprised to see something like this:


 
Argghh… I scrolled down and found out to my dismay that each and every image in my blog displayed the ‘Bandwidth Exceeded’ warning sign instead of the usual images. :(

So what exactly does bandwidth mean?
From a blogger’s perspective, it is the amount of traffic (measured in bytes of text, images, audio, video, etc.) between your blog site and the rest of the blogosphere as opposed to the disk space which is the amount of data stored in your hosting site. My gracious host i.PH allows for me a monthly bandwidth quota of 2GB and a disk space of 100 MB for free. I checked my dashboard and was surprised to see this:

I’ve only consumed 7% of disk space but my bandwidth reached 102% already. Oh well… my site’s traffic has increased. :)

about me

I’m just another simple soul inhabiting the blogosphere, writing about the bits and pieces of my life, sharing my thoughts and reflections on life’s journey… these are what I fondly call my ideas in pink.


Ideas are powerful. A train of thought can make or break, build or destroy. The choice is ours. Our ideas become our future. I believe that life’s meaningful lessons are best learned when shared with others.
