		<description>From what I&#039;ve seen of other localities, everyone&#039;s talking about what Google will do for them - bringing jobs to town, etc. A winning city should be saying what they will do for Google if they are given the chance. To really demonstrate what can be done with next generation connectivity.

Kzoo will have to show themselves to have a group of citizens who are interested in taking advantage of this connectivity for next generation application development, and expanding local/global communication. Kzoo has shown itself to have a visionary commitment to education which will be a big boost. Taking advantage of real time connectivity in the classroom. Building opportunities in local government participation and transparency. Giving the burgeoning class of &quot;Mom and Pop&quot; application developers an opportunity to cook with gas. All possibilities should be considered and highlighted with examples of real human beings behind them.

But obviously there are some policy considerations too. Localities friendly to net neutrality and open access policies will have a boost.</description>
