"Google began offering free Wi-Fi at about two dozen train stations in the country earlier this year, and now has 2 million people using the service each month, Pichai said in a recent earnings call. Millions more will gain access as the service expands to 100 locations by the year end. The search provider’s goal is to reach 400 stations." It's great that Google is doing this, but I don't think offering wifi at 400 train stations counts as "getting India connected to Internet." It's a great convenience, but the vast majority of the time that people spend is at home/work. The amount of time that people spend at train stations is pretty miniscule. The fact that 2 million people used the service at all, is not surprising. I think a far better metric would be the number of man-hours that the service has been used for.
