Feeling wired?

Really no surprise since Raleigh has just taken the top stop in Forbes Magazine's ranking of "Most Wired Cities"---this was a big leap from last year's No. 15 spot. Brooks Raiford, head of the N.C. Technology Association, was quoted in the Forbes article as saying that the region's highly educated and relatively higher-income population is "fertile ground" for high broadband demand and use.

Here's the list:
