Google Fiber to offer fast net access in Austin, Texas
Google has confirmed that it will be extending its super-fast fibre broadband service to Austin, Texas.
Currently the search giant has limited its roll-out to Kansas City, where residents can get up to one gigabit per second speeds for $70 (£44) per month.
In December Google chairman Eric Schmidt said the firm was looking for new cities to expand into.
On its website announcing that fibre was coming to Austin, it invited people to sign up for the service.
The announcement was made by Google, along with Mayor of Austin Lee Leffingwell. Google said it planned to start connecting homes by mid-2014.

On its blog Google said that it had chosen Austin because the city was "a mecca for creativity and entrepreneurialism, with thriving artistic and tech communities".
Currently Google is offering its fibre service in Kansas City, which straddles the border between the states of Kansas and Missouri, and its environs.
"We're sure these folks will do amazing things with gigabit access and we feel very privileged to have been welcomed to their community, said Milo Medin, vice-president of Google Fiber.

高速だが一般人からはそこまでいるスペックではないだろう。
グーグルによるとテキサスのオースティンは創造性と企業化精神のメッカだそうだ。そうなんですね。
