Okay, Austinites listen up: If the rumors prove to be true, the rest of Texas will officially hate you all. . Google is holding a press conference on Tuesday and the rumor has it that Google is going to announce that Austin will be the next city to get Fiber 1 Gbps broadband service. Forget Texas, the rest of the country is going to hate you.
Austin was supposedly high on the list of potential cities to get Google Fiber when Google was first evaluating places to deploy the service, according to GigaOm. And it makes sense. Austin is a tech-savvy city that also serves as the home of a major university.
