Google Fibre?

I saw this and just wanted to pass it along.  Google Fibre will hopefully be coming to a neighborhood near you!  Here is a quick explanation from Marques Brownlee.

Now here is a link to the Google Info Page : http://fiber.google.com/about/

Now I have to admit that this sounds like a pretty good offer but I definitely have some concerns about so much information coming under the control of The Google. Most people look to Google for search without even thinking about using one of the many other search providers.  Android, Chrome, Nexus, Motorola, Gmail, YouTube and now Cloud and Infrastructure (Fibre ) and TV.

I will definitely be keeping an eye on when this offering will get to the east coast and digging deeper as the battle for your information thickens.  Who are the big players?  Well think about it.  Apple, Amazon, and Google for starters.  Microsoft is entering the game with a converged infrastructure strategy. 

Until next week....Eunix
