This thing is a small addon for Firefox that shows you an up to date traffic usage bar.

It's pretty easy to set up and works a treat.

Anyone else use it already?

I've been using if for a few months now. It's a brilliant way to keep track of how much internet you've used compared to how much you're allowed to have used at a certain point in time. I'm so reliant on it now, without it I would be capped in a few days.

You have to add it to your toolbar by right clicking and then 'customize'

Love this add-on, have been using for ages and it's always been accurate and has also provided some extra important information such as how much net I should use a day to stay uncapped, which is 513mb a day, on the 50GB Bigpond plan :|.

It tells you how much you've used, how much time you have left, Remaining MB/day and target surplus/defecit

Hmm not really then. I have a bar the same size with my days elapsed so I just make sure the usage is a bit shorter than the days elapsed bar and I'm rockin.

Yeah, but this gives exact values =p I used to actually calculate how much I was allowed to use per day
