This morning I heard a great story on Minnesota Public Radio about one of the Get Broadband communities – Windom. The news was good “…Windom sits on a state of the art fiber to home telecommunication system. Some say it’s the most powerful digital network in Minnesota, maybe even the country…”MPR does a nice job of talking about the importance of broadband in a rural community, featuring community people who use the Internet, and some who don’t, and they have posted a nice slideshow of Windom on the MPR web site.
