Keen On… Dane Jasper: Why High Speed Broadband Is The Key To US Innovation (TCTV)
Keen On…. Dane Jasper_ Why High Speed Broadband Is The Key To US Innovation (TCTV) | TechCrunch
There are few more articulate supporters of high speed broadband access than Sonic.net CEO Dane Jasper. Not only does he think Americans should have the right to high quality broadband, but he also thinks that it is the key to innovation in the broader economy. Home video is, of course, increasingly dependent on broadband and so, Japser told me when he came into our San Francisco studio earlier this week, is innovation in our healthcare and education sectors.

Keen On… Sonic.net: Why Fiber Is The Future Of Wired Connectivity
Screen Shot 2012-02-02 at 8.55.58 AM
It's always nice to see a small, plucky start-up take on the big guys and not only survive but also prosper. My excellent Santa Rosa based ISP Sonic.net is doing just that - laying its own fiber-to-the-premises network in Sebastopol for only $70 a month and signing up 30% of the local market. While the numbers are still small (the fiber network still only reaches 700 Sebastopol homes), the Sonic.net story is encouraging because it shows that innovation is still possible in the ISP space, a market that has been dramatically "consolidated" since 1995, shrinking from thousands of thousands of local providers in the nineties to just a handful of national carriers today.
