Google made a announcement that it will be testing a ultra high speed internet that will boast speeds of one gigabyte per second and all FREE of change. They plan to test it in one city, possibly more for 50,0000 to 500,000 customers. Well as you can imagine the bidding war is on. So since its free how do you bid? Well you simply try and get Google's attention

So what would you do if you were trying to get Google's attention? Well here are some things that HAVE been done already:

• The mayor of Duluth, Minn., threw himself into the freezing ice-ringed waters of Lake Superior.
• The mayor of Sarasota, Fla., immersed himself in a tank filled with bonnethead sharks.
• The mayor of Topeka, Kan., issued a proclamation renaming his city Google for the month of March.
• Duluth videotaped a mock press conference (see below) in which it said that every male born in the town would be named Google Fiber. It makes you wonder what the mom's thing.
• Madison, Wis., created a “Google Fiber” ice cream — vanilla ice cream with granola and M&Ms to match Google’s multicolored logo.
• Palo Alto, Calif., city employees danced outside the city hall to the Village People's hit “Y.M.C.A.,” flying a banner reading, “Palo Alto for Google Fiber.”

Here is the video of the mock press Conference from Duluth

Hundreds of cities plan to apply and the applications are due on Friday. So if you were google would the stunts above play into your thought process? If you were a mayor what would you do to try and get Google's attention or would you simply fill out the application? You know the mayor who does snag this nice little perk for their city will almost guarantee a win in their next election.
