Google Fiber & Lumber Liquidators

Its been a rainy and wet start to the week. But there's been some important news to come out. Great news for the city of Huntsville and some informational awareness for everyone to take note of.



First Huntsville has been selected as the next city in Google Fiber's implementation. The press release from the city of Huntsville can be found here. This is great news for a city that's always on the edge of technological advancement. Also Huntsville will be the first city to have constructed its own fiber network. All other cities have had Google come in and build the physical network from the ground up. Additional articles can be found here: Motherboard, Fortune Magazine, USA Today.

The other story is about Lumber Liquidators. In the past they were in the news concerning formaldehyde. This report from the CDC builds off that report and notes that Chinese made laminate does have a higher risk of causing cancer. AL.com's news story can be found here with additional links to other information associated with this news.

We will keep you updated on these stories.
