yea!...SF wi-fi on the way

Finally, a city that will allow those who want to access the web from somewhere other than a hotel room (or your house if you're not a visitor) the ability to get online...free wi-fi coming to SF! the blurb on Elinor Mills' CNET blog has a link to the detailed agreement between the City and Earthlink.

Think of how great this will be not just adult citizens of SF, but kids in schools around SF -- should make it so much easier for them to hop online in the classroom, library, etc. to enhance their studies. Of course, sure that parents are already fretting as to how to manage it in the home...all the trouble of setting up the old desktop in the kitchen to monitor jr.'s internet usage for waste now that the kid can hop on a laptop and sneak upstairs. Guess time to start investing in "parentware", spyware for parents who want to see where their kids surf!
