Not-So-Broad-Band


Washington Post reports that the U.S. is far behind in broadband speeds; way, way behind. This is not good news.

This is a negative for all concerned:

- Science and industry are slowed

- Consumers choice is limited and time is wasted

- Media companies are not able to innovate as aggressively

- Advertisers have less effective tools

- Work productivity is likely impacted as well

- Also...well, its just a little embarrassing. Don't you think?

We should get caught-up. We should lead. Perhaps a nice little plank for a 2008 candidate.
