Downtown St Pete wants the Google Fiber Experiment

...

businesses have unparalleled access to an internet connection so powerful they're able to make daily life more efficient, just by residing here. Where, instead of waiting minutes or hours for a file to download or a video to load, it would occur in seconds, allowing technology to take us places we've never even imagined before. With Google's Fiber Experiment, this is all completely possible.

Currently, Google is looking for communities to test ultra-high speed broadband networks across the country. The network would deliver Internet speeds more than 100 times faster than what most Americans have access to today, over 1 gigabit per second, fiber-to-the-home/business connections.

As you can imagine, it would present fantastic opportunities to a community like St Petersburg! It could:

* Attract businesses to our community
* Improve the quality of life for our citizens
* Improve our schools, health care system and government agencies

This type of technology has the power to put Downtown St Petersburg on the global map!
