In the last couple of months the development teams over at Giganews and Golden Frog have been rolling out more than just a few improvements and offerings to their customers. So many that we worried that their teams could possibly be suffering from insomnia. We have been assured that this is not the case, but a lot of overtime is being logged by the teams.

The Past Few Weeks

Their announcement, that they are now retaining binaries for more than 1,200 days, that came on the 18th of November, followed several recent announcements of updates, improvements, and other exclusive offers. Here’s a quick run down of their most recent offering announcements:

• Dumptruck, the online storage offering gets rolled out early for their Diamond members.
• VyprVPN added servers in France and Germany both.
• WebDAV for Dumptruckers.
• Mimo, their Usenet browser, received 3 updates.
• 3 years and 3 months retention…what this article is helping announce.

The Offer

For those that aren’t “In the know,” right now they have offered a discount of more than 50% on their Diamond account for new customers. A Diamond account will only cost $17.49 monthly during this special. On top of their discount, they are also allowing their 14 day free trial. So if you were considering purchasing Usenet access in the near future, you should act quickly and check out their packages. There are other account types, both unlimited and metered, but for us, the Diamond account will gives the most bang for the buck.

Other Announcements

Their announcement of the longer retention was published on the 18th of this month, but was soon followed by more tidings of joy…they Golden Frog announced the online status of a new VyprVPN server in Germany. We said that the boys had been busy, here’s where the overtime was going, but if the rumors are to be believed, there is more to come…

While we are listing all the upgrades, improvements, and add-ons, we should probably tell you about what Giganews and Golden Frog are adding to. Here’s a much shortened list of the things that they give their customers:

• They offer both unlimited and metered accounts.
• The only speed limits will be imposed by your connection.
• Global server locations, get a fast connection anywhere.
• Concurrent connections, up to 50 allowed.
• 24/7/365 support, usually in minutes.
• Mimo, VyprVPN, Giganews accelerator, search integrated into browser.

If you have been thinking about purchasig Usent access, we highly recommend Giganews as a provider. They have been a leader in the industry for more than 15 years, and have an outstanding reputation. With all the improvements and other stuff happening with them of late, we can only wonder what they will be announcing next.
