We recently saw Virgin Media announce their super speedy fibre optic broad band, with the current expansion of the internet it is something the UK must do to be ahead in a technological sense.As the internet itself grows, we are seeing a lot more focus being placed on large files and media. so to ultimatley view a website at its best you need to have good connection speeds.

If we think about ten years back and consider that we were all using dial up connections, if we were currently still using it then we probably could not view things such as YouTube videos and download files. But currently broadband does let us do all this and more at good speeds.

British Telecom though are looking ahead and have recently announced that they will be installing fibre optic cables nationwide. Ofcom has announced that it will not regulate BT’s pricing for next-generation broadband to enable the telecoms giant to make the necessary investment in fibre-optic cabling.

I do presume that when this does finally get rolled out, it will be quite a hefty monthly fee. But I definitely do feel that this is a very positive mood by BT, to move the UK forwards we have to have super fast speeds to access things, it will not only make  personal navigation easier but it will make life a whole lot easier for small and large businesses.  Although the cables will cost almost £3 billion to install I am sure that they will make that back in no time whatsoever.
