Google Wires Faculty Houses with 1Gbps Fiber

It’s a very good time to be a staff member at Stanford University. Google will be field testing its 1Gbps fiber network in a neighborhood of 850 homes. I hope all those folks living in that neighborhood are geeky enough to appreciate it and maybe have a house for rent.

"The layout of the residential neighborhoods and small number of homes make it a good fit for a beta deployment. And its location, just a few miles up the road from Google, will make it easier for our engineers to monitor progress."
