On Wednesday, San Francisco officials held a summit of government and industry leaders to discuss the plan to blanket the city with Wi-Fi. The article calls their plan "ambitious", and that's the right word for it: it calls for a network that can be accessed from a moving vehicle, can penetrate buildings, and will cost less than commercial networks. The city is 47 square miles, much of it dense, urban neighborhoods. It's a gigantic undertaking, and I'm hoping they succeed — and thus convince my town across the bay to follow suit.
