Back in February 2010, Google
announced its plans to build out a fiber-optic network for a city in the United States, promising connection speeds around 1Gb/s ? 100 times faster than the broadband most people are used to. The announcement led
1,100 cities to apply, and today Google has
just announced the winning city: Kansas City, Kansas. For you lucky Kansas City residents, Google has launched an
informational page outlining what their plans are (it also provides some background about Google itself). The site's FAQ says that Google hopes to begin building the network by the end of the year and that service should begin in the first quarter of 2012, with plans to roll out to all communities in Kansas City.
