It’s official. Highspeed internet is everywhere.

I read an interesting article about an Arbitron survey of a rural county in Southern Indiana residents.

It’s interesting to me because I grew up in the adjacent county (Martin).

The telephone survey of 151 households found that 52% had high-speed Internet access at home.

52% ! ! !

The town where I grew up (Loogootee, Indiana) has about 2,400 residents and is the largest “city” in the county.  Then entire county has only 10,000 residents.

A large percentage of the young people move away to find gainful employment.  So, this is beyond an age-driven cultural shift.  When you consider that the public internet emerged in 1995 (13 years ago), this is even more amazing.

Imagine what changes will take place in the next 13 years.
