http://live.pirillo.com/ - Web Accelerators used to be all over the Internet: every page you opened advertised another accelerator that promised the ability to speed up your slow dialup connection by 10, 20, or ever 100 times. The number of web accelerators has dwindled in the past few years, but there are still a few around.Web accelerators work by caching pages in advance so your browser pulls the page from your local machine, instead of waiting for it to be downloading from the Internet. Of course, this doesn't mean a web accelerator will actually speed up your Internet connection: if you don't visit the pages it caches, you could actually be wasting bandwidth (both yours and the websites) instead of increasing your efficiency.Do web accelerators work? In a way, yes. Are they going to increase the amount of bandwidth you have, thus physically accelerating your Internet connection? Absolutely not.Honestly, if you're on dialup, you may notice that your surfing experience may be slowed down, and if you're on a broadband connection, you'll never really notice the caching unless you visit the same page over and over again.Want to embed our Web Acceleration Software video in your blog?
