Ok, so my car’s transmition just died out on me and my car is basically off to the side of a downtown street. I called the tow truck but it will be here in 60 minutes or so… and now you may ask, why am I talking in the first person as if this is all hapenning right now?? well because it is. I am sitting in my car with my laptop, hooked up to the internet through the connection of some nice person in a building near me who is sharing their wireless access.

It seems like almost everywhere you go in a metro area you can find some open network and I think that is the way it should be.

Thank you whom ever is giving me their internet.
