« Own, Rent, Rent-to-Own - New Opportunities | Weblog | The Blob Returns - YouTube is Eating the Internet » Built to Last or Last to Build?So many decisions face an official pondering the merits of a metropolitan broadband network. The bad news is that there are no easy answers to such a question. The good news is that there is a yet one more resource at hand to help one think through these issues. I recommend this 20-some-odd page white paper, Wireless Pittsburgh by The New America Foundation, putting the City of Pittsburgh under the microscope as an example.
