coming soon... Internet by Google. (literally)
Like what Napster did to Music and kazaa did to downloading "things", i think broadband on Powerlines is whats needed for internet to spread like wildfire, where its still not has done.
According to this article here on wirednews site.
"Coming to a home or office near you could be an electric Internet: high-speed Web access via ubiquitous power lines, of all things, making every electrical outlet an always-on Web connection.
If it sounds shocking, consider this: St. Louis-based Ameren and other utilities already are testing the technology, and many consider it increasingly viable. This truly plug-and-play technology, if proven safe, has the blessings of federal regulators looking to bolster broadband competition, lower consumer prices and bridge the digital divide in rural areas.
Now after reading the above para's,you might say "yeah yeah, now wake me up in a year or two when this thing is really running and not a paper tiger".
if so, go back to sleep cause the above wired article is from 2003 and this is 2005.
Then today i read the news saying Google Invests in Power-Line Broadband. here. so what does this mean? and why is this important ..... they said it same thing some 2 years ago too, so this might follow same suit too. well i say nya.
Cause this time, there is money involved and lots of it, almost US $100 million plus. this is what is needed for such good technology to kickstart.
so are we going to see Googleisp.com / isp.google.com ??? umm mayb... lets see (or as i say sometimes.. lasssiiiii ).
