GOOD NEWS / BAD NEWS

I REALLY LIKE "GOOD NEWS / BAD NEWS" THINGIES. SO.......

LETS START WITH THE GOOD NEWS: Speedtest.net includes Ecuador in it's list of "Top Countries Ranked by Speed". Speedtest.net is a nice little website that tests your download (and upload) speeds, FYI. Ecuador consistently places better than 38 countries on the list titled, (again) "Top Countries Ranked by Speed"

THE BAD NEWS:
The list has 181 countries on it. Makes me wonder what countries are not on the list.

MORE GOOD NEWS:
Ecuador consistently beats the well known Internet pioneering giants of Uzbekistan, Zimbabwe, Gabon, and the Sudan.

OMG...EVEN MORE GOOD NEWS (CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?):
Azuay province makes the top ten list for provinces (by speed) in Ecuador. AND on this list, there are only 9 provinces faster! So cool!
