Fastest Internet Connection Dries Laundry

Now ask yourself this - what would you do if you had the fastest Internet connection in the world? Well, short of downloading just about everything imaginable while keeping a close eye on your front door in order to ensure government enforcement officers won't come barging through, what about drying your laundry on it? Apparently, thats what grandmother Karlstad Stadsnät uses it for. Word has it that the ISP sponsoring her line will upgrade it to 100Gbps over the summer, which makes me wonder why those who get all the good stuff in the world rarely know how to use it to the maximum.

If there's lack of knowledge, how could you possibly know that you have something good. You have to know about something before you can utilize it to your fullest advantage.

Her name isn't Karlstad Stadsnät! Karlstad is a city and Stadsnät is what we call a city-wide network that many different ISPs can use to deliver internet-access to customers. The woman in the article is the mother Peter Löthberg, one of the fathers of internet here in sweden.
