Best Connected Cities
Metrics provider Ookla rates the cities in the U.S. and around the world on the speed of their internet connection. No.1, no surprise, is San Jose, CA. No. 2?
Saint Paul, Minnesota comes in at number 2, although in comparison with numbers in Europe and Asia the speeds in the U.S. are laughable.
Stacie Higgenbotham writes, "Seattle-based Ookla has introduced a broadband index that tabulates results from the more than 1 million speed tests done each day around the world. It's found that the average global broadband speed is 7.69 Mbps while the U.S. speeds average out at 10.12 Mbps."
