Vague News: White Space Test: Success or Failure?
Welcome to the White Space. The following is a test. The FCC has determined that White Space does not interfere with television broadcast spectrum. For the next 100 plus pixels, the Cyberculture News shall conduct a White Space spectrum test. If anything appears on your screen within the designated White Space, please do not immediately contact your local office of the FCC to report it. This is only a test.
Thank you for participating in the White Space Test. We now return you to your Cyberculture News.
While the mass media was busy covering the Presidential Debates, the Cyberculture News was hard at work researching key issues pertaining to a debate where Google's Page, allies express support for white space, FCC 'Likely To Approve' White Space and Broadcasters lash out in fear over FCC support of white space. About this time you are probably asking yourself, why is Google interested in white space and why would broadcasters be afraid of some old white space? Well... to answer that question, one has to be aware that The Devil is in the Details in White Space Debate. Two such details of this White Space Debate include an article from the White Spaces News in which it is pointed out that rural areas in particular, have a great deal of white space and FCC Engineers Say White Space Broadband Works Somewhere.
So exactly what does all of the above mean and how does it effect you? When it is cold outside and snow covers everything in sight, you have a whole lotta white spaces in rural areas. Since their is nothing else to do, people either watch TV or surf the web on Google. Thus the reason for the debate between Google and the broadcasters. You could actually claim that they are debating for your virtual eyeballs when their is nothing else but the cold harsh realty of white space all around you.
