WiFi Is A Restaurant?

Slow news Fridays bring out the bizarre stories… However, if you needed something of a reminder that WiFi still isn’t that mainstream, check out the following article from a local paper in Charlottesville, Virginia where “the Question of the Week” was: What do you think of Wi-Fi? They got three answers, and two of them had no idea what WiFi was — with one asking if it was some new restaurant. The one guy who did know, also pointed out that WiFi is free, but at Starbucks it costs $30. If you had no clue what WiFi was before, after reading this blurb, you’re only likely to be more confused.
