N&O Editor John Drescher gave a little shout out to Google Fiber today in his column praising mayors. Says Drescher:
“In Kansas City, Sly James has attracted technology startups by working with Google to provide Internet service 100 times faster than typical broadband.”
I’m hopeful the Triangle area will one day be successful in luring Google’s service here. Our broadband pipes should be collectively owned like our streets and other infrastructure.
