Ohio Establishing State Wide Broadband Network

bohn002 writes "In order to coordinate and expand access to the state's broadband data network, Ohio Governor Ted Strickland has signed an executive order establishing the Ohio Broadband Council and the Broadband Ohio Network. The order directs the Ohio Broadband Council to coordinate efforts to extend access to the Broadband Ohio Network to every county in Ohio. The order allows public and private entities to tap into the Broadband Ohio Network — all with a goal of expanding access to high-speed internet service in parts of the state that presently don't have such service."

Strictland is indeed doing a good job of starting to turn things around after our last failure of a governor.

I've actually had the pleasure of meeting the man a few times in personal and professional settings. Decent enough sort who actually seems to care about the people that he represents.
