Google Fiber is coming. Stanford University is first on the list. [TNW Google]
In the early parts of this year, Google started talking about plans to bring massive Internet speeds to communities around the US. The reasoning? To find out what they’d do with it. Google, understanding that everybody would want the service, did a series of competitions where communities could prove their desire. However, Google makes it [...][Notice: this is the RSS feed for ALL stories from across The Next Web - that means a lot of stories every day - for just our top stories, subscribe to our Top Stories RSS feed here.]

Lady Antebellum Talk Dating, Drunk Dialing and Dylan
Filed under: Exclusive, Interviews
To say 2010 is Lady Antebellum's year would be an understatement. The trio kicked things off in January with the release of their sophomore album, 'Need You Now,' and a Grammy win for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group under their belt. The nominations continued, as the band has five nods at both the CMA Awards and American Music Awards next month -- tying them with the number of nods Eminem received for the latter awards show.
The Boot chatted with Lady A's Hillary Scott, Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley at their recent benefit performance in New York about success, songwriting (they've already begun penning a follow up to 'Need You Now') and why you should put that phone down at "a quarter after one."
How is your first headlining tour going so far?
Hillary: It's great. It's a lot more responsibility than I think you realize until you start embarking on it and making all these decisions. It makes us appreciate the people we've opened for over the years a lot more. You just have to think about every little thing from what people are eating to the set list. Everything. It runs the gamut.

Cadillac Sky Lead Singer Leaves Band
Filed under: Americana, Bluegrass, Country NewsFort Wort band Cadillac Sky's lead singer and mandolin player, Bryan Simpson has announced his departure from the band after eight years. He will be replaced by Georgia folk singer Levi Lowery, who plays for Southern Ground Records, and has been a fan and friend of the band for several years.
Bryan's decision to leave the Nashville-by-way-of-Texas-based bluegrass quintet was based on religious reasons that grew from "a relentless stirring in his soul" over the past year.
"Three years ago, I would have never imagined this day anywhere in my near future," says Bryan. "But that was before Jesus Christ turned my life upside down and made me forever His in the spring of 2008. Since then He has continued to devour my life and everything in it. Daily, my desire for Him grows. The longing for more time spent in complete devotion to Him, combined with a desire to be more mobile in my faith has led me to this decision."
Bryan asks in his written statement for the understanding of "his great family of fans."
