As a cover story in this week's Willamette Week there's an article about
Portland's Personal Telco Project. It highlights the intersection of
free Wi-Fi, its technologies, politics, commerce, and, of course, the
volunteers making it happen. Looks like Portland's city government is
considering taking advantage of the group's effort and angling for a major
PR win.
In the spirit of friendly rivalry, I hope Urbana beats them to the punch.
A choice quote:
"In 2003, when an Intel-sponsored study proclaimed Portland the best
city in the nation for wireless access, Personal Telco got most of the
credit."

Congrats PTP!
