USB 3.0 gets 124.12 MB/s on a good drive, Google Fiber gets 1Gb/s which is just barely faster so you would have to wait

It started at Stanford and UCLA in 1969, they created a network for rapidly exchanging data. Many other Universities got connected and then the National Science Foundation opened it up to additional universities. Then the High performance computing bill of 1991 (Gore bill) opened it for public use and funded creation of the first web browser.

Here’s praying St.Louis is next, crossing fingers.

I think my nexus might explode if I could hook it up to Fiber, considering how slow my vzw 4g is here in st.L with 12mbps down average.

I think it was the CIA and/or NSA that started the internet, so spies had a secure line for delivering intelligence.

1Gbps the was the original low mobility average download speed required by the ITU to be considered 4G. Looks like we’ll have to wait for LTE Advanced to see that.

$120….I think I just might kill myself I pay almost twice that and doubt I get even a 100th of that speed…. or bundled service…

Google, where do I sign my soul over to you to bring service to where I live?

It’s not about what you could do with it right now. It’s about what the future holds. It’s about how websites and interaction evolves.
