Rumor has it, according to close sources of mine, that an entire city in southern France is preparing to become the first city where all citizens, all 60,000 of them, will have a blog. Already, everyone has been given ultra-wide broadband connection (100 mb for each person no less), an effort sponsored by the French government. They are currently training folks so they can teach newbies how to use their blogs. I guess they'll have corner store shops where you can pick up milk and blog tips.
I think they get it, don't you? Although can you imagine trying to keep a secret?

that is amazing :) wow. i love forward looking people like that. just WOW!

Cool...
Do you have a reference, Mie? A newspaper article, or anything? Or the name of the town? Please let me know when you learn more..
Thanks,
Sean
