600+ Communities Are Fighting for Google Fiber Internet

I find it entertaining how many communities are holding rallies and flooding their news with high hopes of becoming a google fiber internet town. This article talks about the fact that google has received 190000 responses to have the internet come to certain towns, with 600+ communities represented. This would be an incredible honor and a huge boost to the Michigan economy not only because of the publicity but because of how much more efficient the internet offering will be.

Here is an article dealing with a number of gripes about this years bracket:

Bonderman eager to recapture youth

This article talks once again of high hopes for Jeremy Bonderman. For years I have hoped to see him return to the dominating form of his younger years.
