Rocketboom and Net Neutrality

July 18, 2006 by Susan Getgood

While I don’t think the changes at Rocketboom merit quite the attention they’ve been getting, I have to admit, I do like Joanne Colan’s style.

Something that DOES merit our attention is the debate about net neutrality. Ted Stevens’ "tubes" comment notwithstanding, everyone online should take the few minutes necessary to familiarize themselves with the issues, and US legislation, at stake. Website "How Stuff Works" has a good primer on the issues (courtesy CBS News Public Eye blog). For more, check out Save the Internet. And of course Jon Stewart.

    I like Colan. She’s very well spoken, and she speaks languages!!

    As for Net Neutrality, it amazes me how quiet the Web 2.0 firms have been. Argh!

    Yes, Joanne is good. I wonder if she’s really an ‘Interim’ host.

    Now, re-linking again Rocketboom and Net Neutrality: You cannot deny how good Amanda’s explanation on Net Neutrality was… http://www.blulit.com/wp-trackback.php?p=139

    Net Neutrality regulation isn’t necessary. Free market access to the Internet will keep the telcos in in check (for now). The last thing we need is more regulation. Once you dig through the hype it seems this is a solution looking for a problem. With that said, we should all be pushing for policies that will foster competition for Internet access from our homes and businesses. How many ISP choices do you have right now? Too few if you ask me.
