Hi all,
Here's the link to the Free Press Community Internet map:
http://www.freepress.net/communityinternet
The map provides links to short profiles of more than 270 Community
Internet projects across the country. It shows projects operated by
local governments, public-private partnerships, schools, non-profits and
community groups. It includes wireless mesh networks, fiber to the home
systems, and those using broadband over power lines.
We also have our older map of state legislative attempts to block
Community Internet projects:
http://www.freepress.net/communityinternet/=states
Hope they're both helpful.
Best,
Frannie

Subject: Connected - CU Launches Community Internet Site
New Community Internet Site Launched!
Today, Consumers Union, and Free Press released new resources for anyone
interested in community Internet projects. You can read stories about groups
across the country that went out and started an Internet network in their
community, be it a small town in Texas or a few blocks in Chicago. We have
already collected more success stories - we will be adding more and more as
they come.
Free Press, is also launching a new resource today - where you can search by
state and find out if any of the hundreds of projects all over the country
are near you.
