Digest #186

Here's the news you need to know.

Get ready for the first fiberhood. The folks at Santa Cruz Fiber say the Sentinel missed the mark in a recent article. The fiber project is very much alive. Cruzio CEO, Peggy Delgenos, shares her insight on the fight for net neutrality and explains how you can help. WordStream has acquired John Marshall's Algorithmic Ads, a small startup you may not have heard of. UCSC professor and ancient DNA expert Ed Green -- the DNA is ancient, Ed Green is not -- is part of a team helping to identify the remains of 19th-century baby Jane Doe found in a San Francisco backyard.

As usual, there's more, so scroll down and start reading!
