[MLUG] most wired local markets...

[Jonathan King <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

...I guess this is another way to approximate relative geekiness:

Interestingly, estimating internet penetration is a new line of work for
the good old Nielsen folks.  Unfortunately, they only seem to look at big
(1,000,000+) markets.  But it turns out that 70% of local households have
net access in Portland and Seattle, so they're #1 and #2.  KC (61%) is
#10, St. Louis (60%) is #12.  Seeing numbers that high for St. Louis (in
particular) suggests to me that the Columbia number would have to be right
up there near the top.  (Except that if they included smaller markets,
they would probably find other college towns with ludicrously high
numbers, too.)
