…There a story on Wired.com about a Wi-Fi entrepreneur who rolled out a wireless network spanning 700 square miles of rural Oregon. The most interesting part of the article, to me, was this:

No major players were vying for the action here, making the area’s remoteness — which in the past slowed technological progress — the key to its advance.”

Remember analog TV? There are still places where you can’t get it (albeit not many). Having free wireless available anywhere is a technophile wet dream for me. It’s a revolutionary to the Information age paradigm as broadband was a few years ago. It’s something that will change the way people use the Internet. It’s a shame that the single biggest hurdle to the technology is politics.
