Google seems to like Oregon. First they decide to build an enormous supercomputing center in The Dalles because of all the cheap hydro-electric power and dark fiber. [utterlyboring.com] Next thing you know, Google's Chris DiBona is in town shelling out cash to PSU and OSU [news4neighbors.net] in order to support Open Source in Oregon's University System. Now they're partnering up with Tri-Met for a super cool mapping service. Got to love it!!!
