Google to roll out Fiber Network

Google is planning to build and test ultra high-speed broadband networks in a small number of trial locations across the United States that will deliver Internet speeds more than 100 times faster than what most Americans have access to today with 1 gigabit per second, fiber-to-the-home connections. They plan to offer service at a competitive price to at least 50,000 and potentially up to 500,000 people.

Some of the specific things they talk about are

• Next Generation Apps
• New deployment Techniques
• Openness and choice
