[Hidden-tech] Rural Areas on Internet Slow Lane

[Tish Grier]

Hi Everyone, 

I came across this article from the NYTimes on the
*lack* of high speed internet in rural areas of New
England:

the kicker is that Verizon is looking at *selling*
lines in VT, ME, and NH.  Could certain parts of
Western Mass be next?

The digital divide, in a short period of time, could
get a whole lot bigger for a whole bunch of us.
