Wow… this is big news. CBS is using its “outdoor billboards to broadcast out a ubiquitous free Wi-Fi network”:1 in midtown Manhattan.
I gave a quote to “Silicon Alley Insider”:2:
bq. Its great to see that free, public Wi-Fi is becoming more available in New York City. CBS’s program is an innovative way to get more free internet to the people, and will hopefully be seen as a valuable asset to the area. NYCwireless would love to work with CBS and other organizations to help light up more areas of New York City, especially city parks where people can actually sit and use the free Wi-Fi networks that we have already built.
