Google Announces Super Fast Fiber for Kansas City [Video]

Posted July 26, 2012 at 6:05pm by iClarified
Google has announced that its bringing super fast fiber to Kansas City.

Today, we're excited to announce Google Fiber. Google Fiber is 100 times faster than today's average broadband. No more buffering. No more loading. No more waiting. Gigabit speeds will get rid of these pesky, archaic problems and open up new opportunities for the web. Imagine: instantaneous sharing; truly global education; medical appointments with 3D imaging; even new industries that we haven't even dreamed of, powered by a gig.

Kansas Citians will choose where Google Fiber installs and when. The city has been divided into small communities called "fiberhoods." To get service, each fiberhood needs a critical mass of their residents to pre-register. The fiberhoods with the highest pre-registration percentage will get Google Fiber first. Households in Kansas City can pre-register for the next six weeks, and they can rally their neighbors to pre-register, too. Once the pre-registration period is over, residents of the qualified fiberhoods will be able to choose between three different packages (including TV).
