Kansas to receive ultra high-speed broadband from Google

“There’s no place like home.” Especially if you’re living in Kansas City, those words will ring truer than for anybody else when Google implements its ultra high-speed broadband next year. Google has officially announced that they will be working with local organizations, businesses and universities to bring a next-generation web experience to the community. The new ultra high-speed broadband, dubbed Google Fiber, is said to be 100 times faster than what most Americans have today and if everything goes as planned, Google will be offering the service to Kansas City folks beginning in 2012 and many more cities in the future.
