Talk:IHUG

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ihug is supposed to be in lower case :)

Yes and no. Originally ihug was in lower case but at points they moved to having a capital "I". Later on the tended to use the lower case "I". Offical documents either use "ihug" , "Ihug" or "IHUG" . Sometimes external parties (iinet even) will use "iHug" although I've never seen the company itself use that. Part of the problem was the branding people were a little slack and didn't actively enforce usage especially by the media. I pretty much decided not to change it hear since it is close enough, also since ihug got bought by iiNet the article might even be redundant. - SimonLyall 00:47, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3rd largest

I think ihug is usually though to be 3rd largest ISP behind Telecom and Telstra. Also it is probably a Subsidiary rather than a private company.- SimonLyall 03:46, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why no usage meter?

Why is a usage meter not a suitable link? It is relavant and it is free. Everyone needs to watch their usage otherwise they get capped. "What should be linked to: Sites with other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article" from WP:EL. WP 22:51, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

The usage meter is really only useful for (some) customers of ihug which is a tiny fraction of the people reading this article. The site doesn't contain any meaning ful relivant content about ihug, just a piece of (very new) software that might be of use to some customer's of the company. - SimonLyall 10:31, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
