Broadband poverty?

[Kevin Harris 0]

Forum members might be interested in an 'odyssey around the country,' by activist and writer John Popham, 'highlighting the problems of rural communities which suffer from poor, or non-existent, broadband connectivity.'

Here - http://is.gd/GEqnQk - he writes of 'farmers digging up their own fields to lay fibre cables.'

John is part of a Big Lottery funded programme exploring how people can best share stories about community-led action through events and networking, using a mix of media.

If you have views on this issue, why not drop him a note? - john.popham@johnpopham.com

I think our trouble is that we are either on the extremeties of the Oswestry exchange or on the outdated Chirk exchange.

Very interesting link on Kevins post, recommend that anyone living out in Selattyn or back of St Martins should read it (next time they can get onto internet!)
