[Chat] Help bring Google's Gigabit fiber to Baltimore
Hello, neighbors, Please check out the initiative to help Baltimore win the privilege of being among the first locations chosen for Google's Fiber for Communities initiative. Visit http://www.bmorefiber.com/ to learn more. The selection closes March 26th. The more support we get the better, so please spread the word. Google is choosing a few locations to roll out highspeed (Gigabit per second, or 1000 Mbps) optical fiber. Verizon is not serving Baltimore with their fiber optical FiOS service, so let's hope Google will give it to us first. Highspeed fiber in Baltimore will be a powerful enhancement to the Internet infrastructure that will enhance business opportunities, telecommuting, and better Internet service for citizens.

Emil and all - Our main City Council contact on the Where Is Bmore FiOS campaign tells me that the City is aware of this and is actively exploring the RFI to see if we qualify. Would obviously be a huge coup if we got it! -Matthew -Original Message- From: Emil Volcheck volch...@acm.org To: Charles Village Chat List chat@charlesvillage.info Sent: Tue, Feb 23, 2010 10:56 pm Subject: [Chat] Help bring Google's Gigabit fiber to Baltimore Hello, neighbors, Please check out the initiative to help Baltimore win the privilege of being among the first locations chosen for Google's Fiber for Communities initiative.

Re: [Chat] Help bring Google's Gigabit fiber to Baltimore
Matthew, I've been in touch with the Mayor's Office of IT, and they are submitting a response to the RFI. It's not so much a question of whether we qualify, but how much response we can get! --Emil On Tue, Feb 23, 2010 at 23:39, weinste...@aol.com wrote: Emil and all - Our main City Council contact on the Where Is Bmore FiOS campaign tells me that the City is aware of this and is actively exploring the RFI to see if we qualify.
