With Google, Larry Page has gone a long way toward achieving the audacious goal he and co-founder Sergey Brin set for the company: “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible.”

One of his current goals is equally ambitious: making the Internet itself accessible, anywhere and anytime, through pervasive and affordable wireless broadband networks. Page has helped lead Google’s efforts over the past year to pry open both unused TV airwaves and closed cellular networks to promote wireless broadband competition and consumer choice.

In an interview-style discussion with ¹ú²úÊÓƵ’s Michael Calabrese, Page described Google’s strategy for expanding access to the Internet and allocating spectrum more efficiently — and explained why opening the vacant TV channels for unlicensed access after next February’s DTV transition is key to promoting broadband deployment and tech sector innovation.
