I'm participating in a local civic project, website forthcoming, with the goal of creating a large, public, wifi hotspot in an up-and-coming part of the city. This will be an excellent proving ground for many of our wifi security ideas. Stay tuned - updates, discussions and lessons learned coming soon.

Nicholas Negroponte of Wired and MIT fame has a great article out on the future of wireless communications. Check it out.

Because further down the street, beyond the reach of my system, another neighbor has put in Wi-Fi. And another, and another. Think of a pond with one water lily, then two, then four, then many overlapping, with their stems reaching into the Internet.
