I am moving out of home and am looking into purchasing a USB type thing for internet. I'm completely computer illiterate and was just wondering if you guys thing 12GB per month will be enough? I only really use my internet for social networking, email and reading blogs however I may need it for journalism-related purposes and skype?

If you're not downloading at all you should be alright. Try not to get a service where you have to pay more if you go over though.

Beware of excess fees. Best to have a plan that slows down your internet when you use up your 12GB instead of charging extra (but I don't know if any mobile broadband plans have this option)

u cant download 12gb of porn a day.

12GB is indeed enough for you. Actually 6GB is fine unless you want to watch youtube videos every day.
Basically I use 100mb a day if just surfing the net, and 300-500mb a day if watching youtube videos.
I download my big stuff off-peak.

Damn Australia, they should release some attractive plans.
100MB is nothing derpppp

12 Gb of porn is certainly possible to download in one day and my connection is not even that good.

It's with telstra/bigpond for $70/month and it does just slow down if I go over

The amount you need is fine, but this seems like a lot of money for that amount. Is USB internet really this much more expensive? Surely there's cheaper deals going around at the moment.
