You can join the Facebook Fan Page to keep updated, there are already 7,993 fans there, connecting and discussing.

Both the City of Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan are putting together an application to send to Google.

What will a fiber network mean to the communities that Google selects?

• A video conference without connection hiccups.

• A movie rental that takes five minutes to download, as opposed to an hour.

• Streaming videos of lectures taking place hundreds of miles away with resolution so precise that you can practically see the loose threads on the professor’s sports coat.
• Fast Connections

You can follow the discussion of the A2 Fiber Network on Twitter.

Attend the Ann Arbor City Council Meeting and voice your opinion on the Google Fiber for Communities on Monday, March 15 at 7 p.m. at City Hall.

Ann Arbor is ranked in the top 15 cities for commuters to live in.

In a new report published this week by US News and World Report and featured on Yahoo Real Estate, it was said:

Ann Arbor, Mich.
 Average commute time: 18.4 minutes
.

Non-car commuters: 27.5 percent

Since it is one of the best-known college towns in America, it shouldn’t be surprising that Ann Arbor is not car-heavy. Many of the city’s major employers, such as the academic journal service JSTOR, the weather service Weather Underground, and the headquarters for Google’s AdWords service are based downtown. That centralized location and Ann Arbor’s compact nature make commuting easy for walkers, bikers, and bus riders.
