- PaulCurrier, on 11/17/2008, -0/+27The Telecom industry needs serious competition. A cartel of corporations, with one (no more than two) dominant players per country block access to the core fiber where bandwidth is too big to imagine. What Google should do is provide bandwidth, open up the last mile blocks with serious high speed wireless access, and inlist all users as repeater POP's. We need to get rid of the metered minutes - last mile bottlenecks - locally and globally!
- themadness, on 11/17/2008, -0/+4As long as it's cheap and fast they can fight it out between themselves, everyone gains in the end, just a pity the telecoms operators are such a bunch of stubborn asses -- change has never been their strong point, and that is the case all around the world.
- whosmatt, on 11/17/2008, -0/+2"Google is not doing all these things to compete directly with carriers or content developers but because Google 'finds their business process to be an impediment to innovation and change.'"
Imagine that. - fooken, on 10/01/2009, -0/+2"The issue is ... to what degree Google destroys [the carriers'] business case and business model, Winogradoff said. "It's more in the new service categories [such as entertainment, SaaS and cloud computing] where the carriers' future growth expectations may be severely impacted if they don't find a solution in partnering with Google." - Alex Winogradoff, a Gartner Inc. analyst
- cwckc7, on 11/17/2008, -1/+2If they want carriers they must construct additional pylons
- ronjohn, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1hmmmm "change"
- reeds1999, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1As wireless technology expands the big carriers will become tomorrow's dinosaurs. Those of you who are old enough can remember the "interconnect wars" of the last century, which the carriers lost magnificently! They will fare the same in the 21st. century!

- earthpaladin, on 12/24/2008, -0/+0Greetings,
One thing I was thinking, is too bad people couldn't share multiple servers spread across different regions. For instance, one server in the six different regions of the us instead of one big server. That would make cut down latency alot. They could be connected by virtual tunnels, so they could act like one big server.
sincerely,
ep
