IIRC, I thought that Google was buying up all of the Dark Fiber. I've heard various theories on what will happen with it:

1) Use it to link all their data centers together forming a sort of 'global Google intranet.'

2) Use it as the backbone for their community internet initiatives.

It's also possible to combine those two.
