Interesting article but it doesn't half bring to mind the old saying, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.Quote:
Still, Google, I can't help but feel that if a company of your size and magnitude is going to provide free Wi-Fi to the residents of its home town - where most of its employees reside - it really should be absolutely amazing and not just Goooog enough.
When all's said and done, it's free and it works.
Agreed, though I do wonder if this means that people in the area are limited to just using Google's WiFi or not - are they still able to get their own connection installed from any regular ISP's - or are they even able to have Google as their ISP (other than the WiFi, and paid obviously) via a fibre link?Quote:

nvm, please ignore. :)
