Wireless In Mountain View

The Googleplex has launched their free wifi service in their home town of Mountain View in California, jumping the gun due to the barrage of positive feedback and join-up requests they’ve had since they rolled out the beta. Of course, their plans for municipal networks elsewhere are more likely to be financially motivated, and this is doubtless a great bit of un-evil PR for them, but even so they surely deserve some credit for giving something back to the community where they are based.
