When Google introduced its Fiber program, many people got excited about how this program would free the control of the internet cables from ISPs. Fiber not only sped up internet speeds in its various cities, but it helped people save a lot of money.
Where is the service headed to next?
If early reports are correct, North Carolina is Google Fiber's next target. Google had scheduled events in Raleigh and Charlotte on January 28 and Durham on January 29, ZDNet reported. However, it's unclear what Google plans to say at the events, or how the content will affect locals.
This information came out among other reports that Google was negotiating with local construction firms in Raleigh and Durham to help construct a new internet network. Google has also been in negotiations with local officials about handling the local rights-of-way access and obtaining zoning for the necessary "fiber huts."
In one sense, this isn't 100 percent new information. The Fiber team announced last February that North Carolina, alongside five other states, would receive Google Fiber before any other state. So far, Google Fiber has established itself in Austin, Texas, Kansas City, Kansas and Provo, Utah.
Google Fiber gives users access to speeds up to 1000 Mbps. The service also claims to provide less file compression and clearer images, according to Fiber's website.
Users will also be able to watch, record, stream and store all the television they want. Users also receive a terabyte of storage on Google's servers.
Google has specific versions of Fiber available for residences, businesses and property managers.
