Google as an ISP(Internet Service Provider)?
This article was discussing the possibilities and theories of Google as an ISP. If it was it would be the third's largest. They even talked about Google coming up with a system that possible threatening Verizon and Comcast as Internet Providers.

I think this article is remarkable. Google never ceases to fail. They know what to do to make people lives more livable and easier. Knowing they have the potential to change the ISP game is music to my ears.

This article was talking about Cisco putting out a new router that is super fast. They announced that the router was "capable of delivering 322 terabits per second." Analysis say's now that at the moment it's not to sure of the accuracy of that speed Cisco claims.

I think this article is pretty sweet. Imagine being to truly browse the internet at the speed of light. Never waiting for download of tunes before heading off to work. If Cisco claim is true on this new router it will truly change a lot of things to come with date and the speed we process it.

This article was about Microsoft stepping up their browser game. Microsoft plans to show a beta of their new Internet Explorer 9 at the upcoming MIX 2010. Microsoft also plans to step up HTML5 support in this new browser.

This article is very much related to the class due to the fact that browsers are very important. They are what allows us to get on the internet and determine our whole experience while browsing. A few years ago Microsoft was the main browsing application but now many companies, like Google, have release browsers that revolutionize how we get on and interact with the internet. Microsoft has slowly been falling behind in the browser category. But as they can see HTML5 may seem like the future of browsers and they plan to jump on board.
