Google is look­ing to con­duct an exper­i­ment where they  will pro­vide ultra high speed broad­band inter­net to a com­mu­nity in the United States.  Here in Day­ton, a group has orga­nized a cam­paign to bring this project to Day­ton.  I love the idea, and thought I would do my part to sup­port the cause.  The group, […]
