The 10 Gigabit town

Five years ago, EPB launched its 1Gbit/s broadband users to homes and business in the Tennessee city – making it the first Gigabit City in the US, long before Google Fiber and any of the telcos rolled out their somewhat selective gigabit access networks (I interviewed Harold at the time, and you can still view the video here, sorry about the lack of HD). This week, EPB has done it again – Chattanooga is now America’s (if not the world’s) first 10 Gigabit City.

For just $299 per month, businesses and consumers can now access a symmetrical 10Gbit/s service.  That’s worth repeating – 10Gbit/s for $299 a month.  Oh, and there’s free installation, no contracts and no cancellation fees.

After work and on the weekend you can head down to Lookout Mountain or launch from Henson's Gap.

Thanks to Brent Harsh.

Californians have been ripping up their lawns in record numbers and many are planting native, drought-tolerant plants instead -- including milkweed species native to California that can thrive in arid conditions.

The female monarch butterfly will only lay her eggs on milkweed and a growing number of drought gardeners are buying the plants to save water and monarchs at the same time.
