How can you go about getting advertising revenue from internet access to people who are in the back of beyond, miles from any kind of existing network? Well, if you’re Google, you launch a load of transmitter equipped, solar powered balloons, and “sail” them about by changing their altitude so that they’re directed by stratospheric winds. These then transmit data to each other and eventually down to a bank account an ISP on the ground. To read all about it check out the main Project Loon page and the Google Plus page. Pretty interesting project!
