I recently shared with you some online tools to help you with your online gaming. This here’s a certain addition to that bunch. We all know how frustrating lag is when playing ANY online game. In my old blog, I wrote some tips on how to reduce the effects of lag.

It’s called Lagmeter which “gives you the ability to not only measure the Lag you live with in your games, but also to understand where your lag-related problems are coming from.
