Dublin - Hot, Smart, Connected

Not just smart, Dublin must be intelligent!

The ICF which is the Intelligent Community Forum named Dublin to "Smart21 Communities of 2008." Dublin is a semi finalist... I think in January 2008 the list will be whittled down to the community of the year.

ICF seems to be a think tank for use of broadband and technology.

The ICF site says of Dublin, a suburb of Columbus:

"Dublin, Ohio, USA - The city of 40,000, named one of the "hottest places to live" has expanded on the network it created (DubLink) and has formed partnerships with a range of research entities, including the Ohio Supercomputer Center. It also boasts a successful new WiFi network. "

The ICF press release - Smart 21 Communities of 2008

Wonder who did the "hottest places to live"?? list and when... found it Money Magazine in 2005 before I was blogging and paid much attention to this stuff. Dublin has the honor of being named one of the "hottest places to live" on their website of course...

Dublin is not really a surprise, nor is the Cleveland area.

"Northeast Ohio, USA – The communities of this region of Ohio, under the inspiration of Cleveland-based OneCommunity and a collaborative group of non-profits and other stakeholders, especially in the healthcare sector, have accelerated the pace of institutions connected to their innovative network platform, enabling an impressive recovery in the regional economy.
