I found it fascinating. They "flush" some cable down your toilet, and plug it in on the other side - in the sewers.

More incredibly, they give you a download speed of 8mbps and upload speed of 2mbps for free!

For download speed 16mbps and upload speed 4mbps, it is about $10, and it gets expensiver, but only about $30 at 16mbps!

How does this actually work? They are only available for US and Canada at the moment, so Karen, you should have got the TiSP! Heehee []

This is the service that was introduced on 1st April - might give you a clue as to how it works []

I think some of the installation options might suggest how serious the options are:

http://www.google.com/tisp/install.html

Professional Installation Service
You can also choose to request our professional installation service, which dispatches an army of factory-trained, sub-contracted nanobots from the TiSP Access Node. The nanobots travel with exhilarating nano-speed through the sewer system and into your home to perform the installation service, which should be complete within 15 minutes. Note: For your own physical safety and emotional well-being and in consideration of the nanobots' working conditions, please make absolutely certain that your toilet is unoccupied at the scheduled appointment time.

In-Commode Package Delivery
With professional installation service, you can also have your Google Checkout purchases delivered directly through the sewage network into your bathroom. Each package comes pre-sealed in a watertight and nanobot-resistant bag made of biodegradable corn-based plastic. For a limited time, TiSP subscribers who sign up for a Checkout account will receive free bathroom delivery on their first ten Checkout purchases.

TiSP for Enterprise
We're actively developing a higher-performance version of TiSP specifically tailored to small and medium-sized businesses, including 24-hour, on-site technical support in the event of backup problems, brownouts and data wipes.

Yes - I recollect, because by the time I read it, it was the 2nd April, and I commented that it was too late to be reading April fool jokes, as the 1st April had passed by.
