The Difference Between 3G Mobile Internet and WiFi Wireless Networks

I’ve noticed that quite a few people are confused by wireless internet media, more specifically 3G and WiFi. Every time I try and explain it, I end up drawing a rough sketch outlining the differences. Here’s a neat diagram showing the difference between the two:

Notes:

While some Internet Service Providers offer both 3G and WiFi internet, they usually consider them separate services and require separate subscriptions.
3G is almost always more expensive than WiFi connected to a fixed service, so when WiFi is available – use it!
Most 3G Service Providers offer a USB modem with their subscription services at a cost.
3G can be quite fast, but is in most cases worse than WiFi.
Other wireless technologies also exist. See how WiMax works.

Shareaza.com – Taken Over and Injected With Filthy Spam

All Shareaza websites out there be careful when downloading upgrades for Shareaza because their original site (shareaza.com) has been taken over by a malicious company and is now posing to be the “Official Shareaza Website”. The software offered by these creeps requires registration and either shows advertisements or requires payment – things that don’t bother you in the real Shareaza.

The real official home of the Open Source Shareaza Project that we love dearly is:

http://shareaza.sourceforge.net/

Tell your friends and family – who knows what dirty little secrets the fake ‘Shareaza 4.0′ comes loaded with. Even a Google search for “Shareaza” will show the spam site as the first unpaid result.

I have only linked to the real Shareaza website in this article to help it reach the top of search engines…
