Sandy, Utah Tops US Cities For Broadband Speed
darthcamaro writes "If you want to live in the city with the fastest average broadband connection speed in the US, you have to move to Utah. According to Akamai's latest State of the Internet Report, Sandy, Utah is at the top of the list for US cities with the fastest average broadband speeds, with an average connection speed of 33,464 Kbps (33.5 Mbps). Overall in the US, the average broadband connection speed in the third quarter of 2009 came in at 3.9 Mbps, down by 2.4 percent on a year-over-year basis, but that's not a major cause for concern in Akamai's view. 'The overall year-over-year decline in the US average connection speed was relatively minor,' report author David Belson, director of market intelligence at Akamai Technologies said. 'The larger year-over-year sample base may have contributed to the decline, especially as mobile usage grows.'"
In the light of some people moderating my above post as "Informative", I find it necessary to get drunk senseless and to run naked around the neighborhood with a pair of log-periodic antennas as antlers, looking for 666Mb/s Wireless Internet reception. I will see you on the news later...
And please vote Orrin Hatch out of office.
For justice, we must go to Don Corleone
Cue the Mormon-phobia comments and jokes about magic underwear...
