Re: Dumb Pipe.... I don't really know if that's true, but then again maybe its a Canadian thing, but I know a lot of people that know pretty much nothing about the ISP they use and they dont care, including whether or not they have a portal.
These people include alot of people that are in the kinda technically challenged group, which I would believe to be the ones these marketing people are aiming for.
I'll give you an example, my dad, he is getting better with technology, but honestly he doesn't know anything when it comes to his internet connection, including the ISPs website, when he needs something changed I go over there and eigther walk him through it step by step with customer service on the phone or if its a self care thing just do it for him. So to him and many people like him having a portal doesn't matter simply because of ignorance.
I know my ISP has a portal and I choose not to use it.
So I would really like to know how many people know that their ISP has a portal and actually use it. -- You want a piece of me? Well come and get it!-Prof. Farnsworth |
