Broadband in the 2008 Election

speed-matters-election-2008.jpg

Broadband = Good. Broadband means better communication, education, information, business, entertainment, social networking, etc. etc. (It also means jobs for me and Dave :)) So it only makes sense that broadband should at least get a mention or two in the presidential election campaigning. The Speed Matters organization (affiliated with the AFL-CIO) has collected information on what Americans want and what the candidates are saying on the topic of broadband. If you find you need a break from CES, take a look at Speed Matters’ recent report on the Digital Divide (PDF link) and the organization’s video montage of candidate speeches (bottom right on the page).

RE: the graphic above – What, no mention of the importance of the Internet for catching the latest episode of 30 Rock?
