After reading all the "Top Priority" projects for Obama when he begins official duties this month, I was surprised to see that bringing High-Speed Internet and Cell phone service to Rural America up there. We all know there are some major obstacles to tackle ASAP but I'm pleased to see that he has included this in the mix. Believe it or not, there are thousands of small businesses in these rural areas, many not owning one computer much less being able to utilize all the benefits of good 'ole Google. It's a shame. I can tell you right now; after having lived and worked online over the past decade, I would feel lost without it. No Google? I mean, how do people survive!!!!??? So, for anyone who know people in rural American towns that don't have the luxury of anything more than dial-up access and land lines...leave a message on the Answering Machine! Send a telegram! They will soon understand the phenomenon such as YouTube...and Facebook...and Google Maps.
Thanks Mr. Obama for keeping the little (but extremely important) tasks on your list!
Until next time...
