Videotron Internet Usage Monitor Widget for Mac

Whats is it?

Quite simply, this is a Mac Dashboard widget that allows Videotron.com customers to monitor their monthly bandwidth quota.

Features

The widget will display the following:

• when your billing month started;
• the amount of upload and download you made thus far, this month;
• a graph of you current usage versus your allowed usage;
• a hint about where you stand on your daily quota usage: did you download too much, or not enough, since the beginning of your billing month, to end the month with your quota used at 100%?;
• the last updated date.

How it works?

Every 6 hours, the extension sends an HTTP request to the Videotron Public API.

This API has been developed by Videotron to provide to third-party developers the data necessary to display bandwidth usage for Videotron customers.

How to use?

Download the widget from my blog and simply double-click it to install.

Then go in the options (click the round i icon in the lower-right corder), and enter your Videotron User Key.
