London gets largest free WiFi hotspots

What a good idea - I know I'd use that if I was working near there. 15-30 second advert for 15 mins of surfing seems very fair :)
 
I don't know, some friends of ours who moved over here from America a year or so ago would't use broadband here on principal because the prices are so ridiculous. In the city that he came from in the US (can't remember which one) He said free wifi was provided within the city by the city council as a public service. And there were organisations that recycled older computers (people upgrade pretty often there aparently) & cellphones selling (or giving) them to poorer people at token prices so that 'no-one, whatever their income level, should be cut off from the web & the international access & opportunities that it provides'.
Have to say I really liked the idea :nod:
wonder if I could convince the council here?
But no
Mayor Chin is convinced that we need a $91 million indoor sports stadium instead (despite the fact that our current one -carisbrook, affectionately known as 'The Brook'- works fine & no one wants a new one, & most people reckon sticking our team indoors will only soften them up. Rugby is about being cold & wet & muddy after all :nod: why else does he think we only play it in winter... duh)
Obviously he must be right though... right?
Can't think of a better reason to put our rates up myself :lol:
Whoops... OT sorry :o
 
Rugby indoors is the man mad . :eek: Organise a pettition vote the chin less wonder boy out of office . Anarchy rules . OK . :D
 
Oh fantastic! I'm near the city centre so might be able to get this if my broadband goes pairshaped :D
