On Tuesday Mayor Ed Murray announced a “three-point plan” to bring high-speed broadband service to underserved neighborhoods in Seattle. The mayor will ask the City Council to vote on legislation allowing private investments in high-speed fiber networks, and as part 
of the plan CenturyLink says it will offer one-gigabit service to Beacon Hill, the Central District, Ballard, and West Seattle by the end of 2015. Naturally, the Internet reacted: “I hope it does open up to competitive services. Starting with CenturyLink doesn’t seem like a great choice.” —@anankaf, via Twitter. • “Faster, please. It’ll be a happy day when I can rid myself of Comcast.” —@unclevinny, via Twitter. 
• “What about First Hill and Capitol Hill?” —@gordonwerner, via Twitter.
