Page weight might be unfashionable but it's far from irrelevant. That's because the web isn't free. Accessing data costs, and the costs of that access veries greatly across the globe.
A new site called What Does My Site Cost? looks to explore how much access costs as you move from country to country. To use the site, simply enter your project's URL. The results are fascinating and enlightening.
This site was made by Tim Kadlec, a web developer from Wisconsin.
