Shasta.com and AccessNow supports the effort to bring Google Fiber Optic bandwidth to our city.  If you would like to support this effort, we need your help.  Please read the following then follow the link below and nominate your city for Google Fiber.

Google recently announced a new pilot program to bring extremely high speed Internet connections to a select group of local communities.  This program will be “game changing” for the selected communities.  Access to this type of bandwidth (1Gbps connections to the home/small business) would have a major impact on the local economy and would open up tremendous new opportunities.  I sent the below email message today to some of our local government leaders to encourage their leadership in trying to attract this investment from Google but I wanted to send out this message to encourage the various groups that you’re all associated with (Chamber of Commerce, Shasta Technology Association, EDC, Shasta Builders Exchange, Etc.) to also express your support for this program both to other community leaders and to Google.  You can submit a nomination for Chico to help show community support for the project at the following site:
