Google Inc. has singled out Kansas City, Kan., as its inaugural site for its well coved ultra-fast broadband network program. As per reports, the company had been seaming through over 1,100 proposal for the past one year and has finally selected Kansas city to enhance the accessibility of broadband network by over 100 times as compared to that found in US.

The Kansas City has reportedly beaten many contenders, including Huntsville and Asheville in the race of providing internet connection of 1 gigabit per second to as many as 500,000 people.

Confirming the news, Milo Medin, Google's Vice President of access services, claimed, “In selecting a city, our goal was to find a location where we could build efficiently, make an impact on the community and develop relationships with local government and community organizations”.

Moreover, the Google claimed that this is a learning lesson for the phone and cable companies to upgrade their system so that better services can be rendered to the customers and assured that Google is not eyeing any share of their broad band business.

Responding to the common surprise among the contenders over the selection of Kansas, Milo Medin claimed that KCK’s infrastructure was the potential reason of choosing the city over others cities.
