I want Google to choose Topeka as their test site for the new higher speed internet. I don't understand why people are criticizing Mayor Bill Bunten for doing something creative. By naming Topeka Google, Kansas for the month of March he seems to have created both positive and negative reviews, from all over the country.
By doing something unorthodox I feel the mayor might have had the right idea. Look at all the publicity and hype Topeka is getting because of it. Google will now definitely hear about us and maybe put us at the top of the list. Maybe some people feel Bunten was "sucking up to Google" but I think he was trying to get their attention in a humorous way.
Not only could Google bring incredibly high-speed internet to Topeka, but it could also help the business community here as well. This is the perfect direction for the city, and I hope Google chooses us!
