Google to announce FREE high-speed service?

America has the highest prices and the slowest services when it comes to high-speed Internet. We’re falling behind many other countries as a result. So, what if high-speed Internet wasn’t just faster and cheaper but was FREE! Google is considering launching free Wi-Fi in exchange for showing you ads. Google is being very secretive about this, but the company is testing one of its “betas” called “Google Secure Access.” Google would be your homepage and you’d have to register. But after that, it’s free. We need to widen our thought patterns here. We have phone companies charging upwards of $25 and cable companies charging about $40 for high-speed access. In other countries people pay about $5 a month. So, the idea of free Wi-Fi is very exciting. Google has the resources to throw a lot at this and Clark is cheering for them. We’ll let you know what happens.

This week's poll
The high cost of jet fuel has a lot of people staying at home this summer instead of traveling. Is there a "staycation" in your immediate future?
Yes, I just can't afford a plane ticket and/or hotel room right now.
No, I've saved up all year just to get away for a bit.
Maybe, I have to wait and see how my finances pan out.
