Google wants 'dark fiber'
This article has been posted in several places but I think it's worth a repost.
Quote: Is Google planning to build a global fiber optic network from scratch? And, if so, why?
The question has cropped up in light of a recent job posting on the search engine giant's Web site seeking experts in the field.

A Google spokesman declined to elaborate on the job posting. Still, it raises some tantalizing thoughts, including the long-shot chance that the company is laying the groundwork to jump into the telecommunications business. |
