This Google talk of an experimental broadband by Google of one gigabit per second is more exciting than all the buzz around Google Buzz (Buzz Takes Gmail To A New Level) and all the buzz around the Apple iPad. (iPad) Innovation is a basic property of the human mind. There will always be innovation. But some territories are more fertile grounds for innovation than others. And between hardware - example: iPad - software - example: Buzz - and connectivity - example: a one gig per second broadband - I have to argue there is much more room for innovation in the connectivity sector. Universal high speed internet is a lofty goal. I don't know what universal means to you, but for me that means global.
