Ever had to speak to a dying loved one on skype who perhaps took a turn for the worst before you can jump on a plane/train to get to them in time?
You idiot.

Why call names for. Honestly one of the artforms of the lowest common denominators of society. We can already skype, we can already do a uni course online, we can already get feedback, this technology allows us to do it faster and more efficiently. I'm all for this provided it is value for money and done properly. This is a massive project with plenty of scope for waste and mismanagment. Does this include any investment for wireless technology for remote areas? I'm assuming they won't be running fibre to the middle of the desert...
