I'm not surprised- Geocities definitely measures it hourly. I was curious
at one point to see how much bandwidth you actually get, and looked all
through the help area to no avail. I had to email them to find out. I
think it was 2Gb of transfer total.
What he didn't tell me, but appears to be the case, is that you would only
ever actually get 2Gb if you got maxed out every hour. In other words, they
divide up that limit by 30 days, then 24 hours, and give you roughly 2.75 Mb
per hour. Since traffic tends to vary a lot throughout the day, not to
mention throughout the month, you'll probably get maybe 1/10 of the actual
bandwidth they claim to give you. On the other hand, when it does go
over... at least you don't wait a whole month to go back up.
(Quick calculation tells me that it doesn't take very many people browsing
through 20 images at ~50 Kb each to hit the hourly limit. Like... *3*)
