Besides Iplan, is there another alternative? Can you share how much does it cost to you?

> Uruguay is like a parallel dimension, where somehow Argentinean people didn't screw up their state.

I think you can find everything you have just mentioned in Buenos Aires, for sure. if you will be earning in USD you will be more than comfortable.

It depends. What are you looking for when deciding for a place to live? What's important to you?

Well. Sadly I don't have any benchmark (or some serious analysis) to share with you but I can tell you this:

- I pay about 40usd for a non symmetric 12Mbps connection. It works ok - at least for me - I can stream music or watch something on Netflix without any problems.

- My ISP has a max of 50Mbps (non symmetric)

- You can find some corporate symmetric connections (I'm not aware if you can have those at home) but I suspect they are like a regular connection in some other more advanced countries

I've lived in Buenos Aires all my life. This is my biased pros/cons list: - It's a beautiful city with a lot of art and beautiful places. - Food is great - Most of the people is nice and open minded (same sex marriage is accepted here) - We have a lot of good IT professionals and great entrepreneurial ecosystem (including cryptocurrencies) - Argentina is a beautiful country to do some tourism - Our timezone is great, we are close to NYC time for example

Cons: - Prices. I've been travelling a lot this past years and I found Buenos Aires might be as expensive as other big cities. - Inflation, it's really hard to deal everyday with it. I've lost sense of prices to be honest - Some places are really insecure. Also, you might have problems on safe areas too. I live in a good neighborhood and someone broke into my apartment when I was out.

Great idea. I liked the tutorial too.

I have some questions: Are you planning to release a firefox extension version? Is this going to be free? I wasn't able to find anything about pricing on the site.

Nice job!
