Google to Test Fly Balloons which transmit wi-fi over Western QLD: from the Guardian
This is just very cool indeed. These balloons fly at twice the hight of a jet and stay up for 100 days. Testing will be done by Google in conjunction with Telstra for the test trial. This type of thing would be of great benefit in covering disaster sites etc. From the same Google lab that has brought us Google glass’s, and the Google driving car.
