Google Experiments to Benefit Customers & Corporation

On Google's official blog, the corporation announces an experiment they plan to conduct. Google wants to "build and test ultra high-speed broadband networks" in a few "trial locations" across the country. The corporation is interested in having a trial period for delivering internet at speeds 100 times faster (than most Americans have access to) to "at least 50,000 and potentially up to 500,000 people." The goal is to "experiment with new ways to help make Internet access better and faster for everyone."

The company hopes to develop "next generation apps." Also, through experimentation, the company strives for "new deployment techniques." With these new techniques, Google wants to find "new ways to build fiber networks" and to share the lessons learned with the world. They also hope to add "openness and choice" to give users the choice in providers with multiple services. Google states they don't think they have all the answers, but they hope to make a contribution to the goal of delivering faster Internet through the trial. Google is utilizing an experiment to gain research and further insight to better their field.
