Comment by Wayne Caswell on April 16, 2008 at 5:06pm - Maybe CenTX WFS should focus on Internet 2020 instead of Education 2020, because universal access to the Internet over BIG Broadband benefits so much of society -- EDUCATION (e.g. interactive multimedia self-paced curriculum, distance learning), COMMERCE (e-commerce & banking), HEALTHCARE (telemedicine), COMMUNICATION (VoIP, video calls, citizen journalism), LIFESTYLE (photo & video sharing, High-def & ultra-high def TV, hyper-realistic gaming,), ENERGY & TRANSPORTATION (telework & telepresence), ARTS (collaborative music performance across distances), DISABILITIES (remote signing & lip reading), GOVERNANCE (e-government), SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY (worldwide grid computing), and NATIONAL SECURITY.
