Are there screenshots? Is this a recommendation from use or a googled result?

Personally, I'd be happy with something like Windows NetMeter but with two graphs- one for WAN and one for LAN traffic. The LAN one wouldn't need all the quota and alarm stuff (and it wouldn't worry me if the WAN one didn't have those either), just the totals for various periods.
Not bothered about too many bells and whistles (KISS!), my needs are modest

ps
An option to dump the one-minute values (at midnight) into a csv file would be handy if I wanted to get analytical.

Comes with a nasty side effect of interfering with the normal operation of OSX ProteMac Meter but is has all the features including traffic by application and live graphing.
Much less featured but works properly Net Monitor.

WAN/LAN is already in the beta, although it's not showing up as split graphs yet.. There are some bugs and changes we need server side to show this data... I think Andrew is just looking into Windows 7 64-bit testing as well as there were some issues.. If you drop an e-mail to him, you might get on the beta

Without knowing what TBB meter actually does as I've never used it.... I just use istat menus as it gives a real time usage, total usage and you have the option for a graphy type thing.

Activity Monitor is standard (but basic) in OS X. ( screenshot)
