UK Broadband Statistics
A posting about cloud computing's broadband requirements by EURIM Secretary-General Philip Virgo on his When IT Meets Politics Blog caught my eye yesterday.
In the posting Does Cloud Computing need Superfast Broadband?, Philip Virgo highlights two documents from 2009 that I hadn't come across previously:
- UK Broadband Speeds 2009 - Consumers' Experience of Fixed-line Broadband Performance, OFCOM, 28 July 2009
- Next Generation Connectivity - A Review of Broadband Internet Transitions and Policy from Around the World, Berkman Centre for Internet and Society, Harvard University for the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), October 2009
Certainly plenty of data about the UK and comparisons with abroad, especially when combined with the Oxford Internet Institute report Internet in Britain 2009. Useful if you are planning a web project that depends upon high-speed internet access in the UK, or are developing a web application for mobile devices and are wondering just how fast connection speeds are.
