• Sources have revealed Google has plans for its own wireless network
• Its customers could make calls, send texts and browse the web on mobiles
• Rumours claim it will be initially offered to cities that have Google Fiber
• Google Fiber is superfast broadband available in Kansas, Texas and Utah
• Instead of building masts, however, Google is said to be looking at becoming a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO)
• This means the firm will buy access to existing networks and resell it

I need a network in the Gallatin Canyon along US 191 from West Yellowstone to Gallatin Gateway.

What are the chances of that?

Probably more likely to have a volcanic eruption in your neighborhood!

Now that’s funny, I don’t care who you are. Knock on wood.

Google has spent the past 15 years hiring some of the smartest people on the planet. They are only now just beginning to grow. In ten years, they will be over one hundred times the size they are today.

That’s scary.
Eric Schmidt is a devout member of the regime.

Yeah, and their corporate motto is “Don’t be evil.” Which should tell you something.

That might fill in the lowlands and make towers more generally accessible (somedays later).
