[LINK] Kansas City Google Fibre -- report

[Jan Whitaker]

This story is a preview of the sorts of stories we can expect when 
the NBN begins to be used (more widely) I suspect. One of the good 
lines is 'the rest of the Internet isn't ready'. We need to keep that 
in mind as the roll-out occurs. The other point the writer makes is 
that some parts of the Internet can do what the FTTH system in KC 
does. That's true assuming those other connects are 22Mbps or higher, 
but NOT for the majority at the lower average speeds of around 6Mbps 
in the US who do chase the ball along the grey line while watching 
Youtube vids.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
