Mexico By Email And Internet

With many Mexican businesses, language schools, and individuals now online, the Internet provides a cheap and accessible alternative to pricey phone calls and slow postal service.

Although in some places it’s possible to forge a remote link with your home server, in most cases this is a much slower (and thus more expensive) option than taking advantage of free web-based email accounts (e.g., www.gmail.com and www.hotmail.com). Internet cafes are listed in the Practical Information sections of major cities. These cybercafes can even be found in some of the smaller Mexican towns, with varying quality and speed; expect to pay US$1-8 per hour for access. For lists of additional cybercafes in Mexico, check out cybercaptive.com.
