....... " Deacon runs KC Digital Drive, a group set up to make the most out ultra-high speed Internet available in the city for $70 a month. "You have faster Internet here than anyplace else, and you can get it for cheaper than anyplace else. Because Google chose this market to build out in first."

As the Google internet service progresses, they will be giving other ISP's a run for the money.

Google is the future of everything. At least it seems that way.

 

Once they branch out to more markets the other ISP will have to try to match the offers. It can only be good for everyone when that happens.

I agree with THAT, both of you! Here, in this little Arkansas County, Century Link has the market about tied up, and then, they offer a higher speed if you'd like to pay...$$$$ this much.. I think I can get a faster download speed if I use a server 80 miles away... forgot where I saw how to check those ISP's. Do you know? New computer might (will) be faster than this one, but should check ISP's too!
