Yes, but all it means is part of SF is getting fiber. Could this just be a new line for added redundancy for their Stanford "beta" project?

I'm not sure what list of cities other people are referring to...in the PDFs? Or the fiberforcommunities.com list of cities that responded to the RFI?

Google has a list of the cities that appied for and (may?) receive the FIOS offering. Its in the original story link.
GOOG isn't offering FiOS. That's a Verizon thing. A passive optical network with asymmetric bandwidth thing.

What GOOG is doing is a single fiber per house going all the way back to a CO.

Reassuring to know a list of chosen cities hasn't been leaked.
