Small connections add up to a big effect. The visual metaphor that came to mind was lightning occurring between clouds before finally striking the ground. Appropriately enough, it can strike in either direction (cloud-to-ground or vice versa). This post also reminded me how much I enjoyed the "TV is dead" Gillmor Gang with Doc Searls. I've been ranting about the wasted "live" TV bandwidth (mainly used to loop pre-recorded shows) ever since. As you've previously mentioned, AT&T is also offering digital TV and phone service through uVerse. It's nice to see these providers competing for our business for once.

But I do want some kind of faster service than Comcast gives, so I am waiting for FIOS.
