Anything internet remains central to today’s technology and our always on, always connected lifestyles are seeing us all demand more and more bandwidth. As such we talk this week about Google Fiber and Steve being the recipient of some CenturyLink evangelical fiber salespeople. As always, we cover the tech that matters to you too.
Hosts: Steve Borsch, Tim Elliott and Phil Wilson (Graeme Thickins is off this week)
Music: If This Guitar Could Talk by Mean Gene Kelton and The Die Hards. Brought to us by Music Alley
