Welcome Muninetworks!

Thanks to Christopher Mitchell for sending a head up on a new site, Muninetworks. They “feature news, reports, and case studies that illustrate how communities can ensure they have a fast broadband network. We encourage local ownership of broadband networks; when network owners come from outside the communities, they tend not to prioritize local needs.”

In it Chris is keeping us up-to-date with everything related to municipal networks. There’s a nice section on reports and a glossary – so I think it will be helpful to community leaders who find themselves interested in broadband as well as those of us with a long-standing interest.

There’s a nice article that highlights best broadband networks in the US, which also serves as a comparison between public and private networks. I don’t want to ruin the surprise for anyone – but public is looking good.
