Non-Profit Wifi

Residents of Savannah, Georgia will be happier than ever to hang out in downtown parks now. The non-profit group, Savannah Spanish Moss, has created the city's first-ever free public wifi hot spots. The technology promises to turn public parks into public libraries, foster economic development and create new ways for downtown businesses to reach visitors. After the G-8 Summit, the wireless network available along River Street and in Reynolds Square will remain, and, hopefully, expand to other squares, Forsyth Park and City Market.

The same fever has hit the nation's capital, where the Open Park Project, a non-profit group touting "hotspots for democracy" has placed an open Wifi router at the SupCt, and will be placing routers around The National Mall within a year. OPP hopes to reach tourists, protesters and tech junkies alike.
