After reading about google building this massive fiber network on DSLR and hiring Vint Cerf I have come to this conclusion:

Google is engineering a whole new protocol that will use their fiber network as means to provide internet service(which I am dubbing G-Fiber or Gable) with the possibility of nationwide Wi-Fi.

its been roumored that google is buying all that fiber, so they can build there own free ISP that offers 3-4Mbps of data and is ad supported. 

if they did that there would be no more dialup  :haha: :haha:

1st i doubt even google would give something like that away for free, 2nd, i doubt that they are going to accumulate anything other than backbone connections for themselves, why should they bother getting into the last mile business.
