Google Fiber has agreed to consider San Diego for its super high-speed broadband internet service, the company announced Thursday.

By bringing fiber-optic cable directly to homes, the service can offer speeds up to one gigabit per second or 1000 Mbps, much faster than the average internet service speed of 11.9 Mbps.

They are picking and choosing just like ATT started out. IMO they should have to build out access to everyone not cherry pick wealthier areas.
