Did you know Santa travels 175 million miles on Christmas Eve?  But, Santa is not the only one traveling this time of year. According to the American Automobile Association (AAA), more than 103 million Americans are expected to travel between December 23^rd and January 2^nd. That will lead to cramped airports, busy highways, and increased holiday stress.

There always seems to be something that needs to be made or baked this time of year. But with everything that needs to get done during the holiday season, getting the cookies baked and the Christmas dinner ready can become a big stressor. To help reduce the stress, ImOn has compiled a list of helpful recipe websites, helpful tips, and some of our employees’ favorite recipes to help you stress less and connect more!

The arrival of the holiday season often means spending time with family, exchanging gifts, and enjoying delicious meals with loved ones.  But it is also a perfect time to focus on gratitude and giving.

Wireless networks, aka Wi-Fi, allow you to access the Internet anywhere in your home and provides an easy way to share a single Internet connection among multiple devices. One limitation of Wi-Fi networks is how far their signal reaches. Sometimes the range of a Wi-Fi network won’t even cover your entire house. Fortunately, there are things you can do to boost your Wi-Fi signal strength and expand your coverage area.

ImOn Communications believes in supporting and investing in the communities we serve. And what better way than providing free public Wi-Fi in portions of Cedar Rapids and Hiawatha. ImOn knows Internet connectivity is such an important part of our daily lives so offering free public Wi-Fi makes Internet access readily available where we work and play. Free public Wi-Fi not only enhances the quality of life for residents and visitors to our community, but it is also a step forward in making Cedar Rapids a “connected” city. Public users can get up to 2 hours of free access daily, while current ImOn residential Internet customers receive unlimited access. Just another added benefit of being an ImOn customer!

You cannot deny the fact that the Internet has opened an endless world of possibilities for our children. It is an amazing tool that can bring together information and people from around the world. It helps our children learn, explore their world, and socialize with their friends. But, the Internet can also make children vulnerable to certain risks and dangers to their privacy and personal safety.
Here are a few Internet safety tips from the National Crime Prevention Council to help keep your kids safe on the Internet.
