Posted March 17, 201015 yr I believe it's the Dayton Development Coaltion that is pushing this, to have the Dayton area as a test bed for the experimental Google service. The call the pitch Dayton Average + Awesome ...surf into the link and there is a neat map showing supporters. The geogparphy is interesting if you know anything about Dayton and it's suburbs. Some expected clusters and a few unexepected ones.
March 18, 201015 yr Impressive sales pitch. Simple and effective. If they don't choose Dayton, it won't be due to a lack of quality effort!

March 20, 201015 yr Why would they choose JC over Manh? No sense there. I guess maybe ease of installation, but then Dayton wins by a mile. What are the cities in the running? (I guess I could look that up... :P) Edit: Okay, I see, anybody can have a go at it. Does anyone know if there are other pitches made like the one for Dayton? It's hard to imagine anyone one-upping that; it's really freaking good.
March 20, 201015 yr Ah, there are lots. Here's someone's blog which has a list: http://www.zettaphile.com/2010/03/02/list-of-cities-vying-for-googles-gigabit-project/ And here's a link to Cincy's Facebook page(s): http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=300695942946 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cincinnati-Ohio/GOOGLENATI-Google-Fiber-for-Cincinnati/10150147963400355?ref=mf#!/pages/Cincinnati-Ohio/GOOGLENATI-Google-Fiber-for-Cincinnati/10150147963400355?v=wall&ref=mf :evil:
