I wonder if they could at least bring it to the east side, where their Kirkland office and Microsoft in general is located. I bet there are lots of high tech workers who would be more than happy to dump Comcast for Google Fiber over there.
- final 12y agoImagine all the information they can collect about what Microsoft is doing/planning.
- tdicola 12y agoIt would be pretty ironic, but maybe it would kick Microsoft to do something similar. If they already have fancy buses to shuttle all their workers around, why don't they lay a nice fiber network to give them all fast internet (and allow more reliable working from home).
- esturk 12y agoWhen MS announced the Xbox One, I was actually on their camp. I bought into the whole idea of digital distribution as the future of gaming. However, not once have MS done anything to actually improve the US internet speed or infrastructure since. Its like MS sold me on the vision of a future, but came back to tell me that they don't actually have a plan to make the vision possible.
- seanmcdirmid 12y agoThe east side isn't seattle, and many of those small cities lack the poor neighborhoods that would make universal service so unecononimical. So why not? But man, living in Bellevue feels a bit depressing. The cooler but smaller Google office is in Fremont right?
