FCC Launches Blog, Twitter Feed

The Federal Communications Commission decided to use the Internet to promote its plan to speed up the Internet.

The agency launched a blog called Blogband to spread the word about the National Broadband Plan, as well as starting a Twitter account.

FCC chairman Julius Genachowski explained the motivation behind Blogband in his initial post:

The National Broadband Plan is one of the most important initiatives the FCC has ever undertaken. To foster public dialogue about the National Broadband Plan, we’re tapping the power of the Internet to launch a new FCC blog, called Blogband.
