Getting hip to NEW technology

In the midst of all other sundry tasks and responsibilities, our staff recently realized that an entire world of Web 2.0 opportunity was passing us by. Well...never more. Consider us reformed (or rather, a beginning of reformation).

We hereby christen this blog of the e-NC Authority - as a small but instrumental step toward greater inter-connectivity with our partners and advocates across the state of North Carolina. As we work together to increase the availability of high-speed telecommunications services, this blog will be populated with new and compelling research, publications, articles and links of interest. We hope you will join us in the discussion. Send stories of what your life is like without a high-speed connection to the Internet. Send stories about how your business or education has improved because of greater (and new!) bandwidth. And let us know how we can work better together as a team.

If North Carolina is to remain competitive in the global economy of our present and future - every citizen, school, home, hospital and business must have access to a high-speed Internet connection. Making this happen continues to require nothing short of revolutionary action on the part of our state's citizens and elected leaders - to ensure that North Carolina not only survives economic transformation, but excels at it.

Welcome to the connection.
