Here are the Top 5 Reasons You Might REALLY Want Google Fiber in Greenville:1. Speed - Internet speeds more than 100 times faster than what most Americans have access to today with 1 gigabit per second, fiber-to-the-home connections.
2. Open Service, Competitive Prices - Google will offer this service at a competitive price to at least 50,000, and potentially up to 500,000 people. (Google will operate an "open access" network, giving users the choice of multiple service providers. Google also promises to manage this network in an open, non-discriminatory, and transparent way.)
3. Test the Future Today - Imagine if everyone in Greenville County had access to a fleet of new cars that were so advanced that they weren't going to be released to the general public for many more years. Well, that's exactly the kind of opportunity that this is. With Google Fiber, Greenville can "drive" tomorrow's broadband internet today.
4. More Business, More Jobs - With access to Google Fiber, new and existing companies are likely to test new applications for high-definition video, remote data storage, real-time multimedia collaboration in addition to new medical, educational, and other services. This will help spur economic growth in our area through increased business investment and opportunities for high quality jobs for our citizens.
5. The Unexpected - As Google says, "If the Internet has taught us anything, it's that the most important innovations are often those we least expect." There are benefits and opportunities to having tomorrow's internet today that we can't even begin to imagine right now. Who knows what magic might happen in Greenville with Google Fiber?!
