Why’s my Internet so slow?! I won’t disparage any particular service provider, but we’ve all experienced an agonizingly slow Internet connection. In the Internet era where virtually every facet of life relies on the Internet, a slow connection can be disastrous. However, Google may have ignited the beginning of the end of slow Internet.
Google has invested in the so-called Google Fiber network, which is currently available in only several metropolitan areas. Google Fiber boasts Internet speeds up to 1000 megabits per second, which utterly eclipses rival ISPs’ top speeds of 40 to 5o mbps. Need a visual? Imagine a drag race between a Ferrari and a Minivan. Think I’m exaggerating? Take a look for yourself, but, before you get too excited, it may be a while before Google Fiber is available nationwide. So, if you happen to be one of the lucky few cities where it’s available, comment below and let us know if it’s worth waiting for!
