It’s time to go beyond thinking of WIFI access points as single entities. It’s time to go the next step and leverage access points as part of a location-aware network.

To what kind of potential customers will this appeal the most? Those with big homes, who will tend to have higher than average incomes and/or wealth. Nice.

Unfortunately, I had to shut down my open wireless network experiment. That is because I found three people within the span of two days who were both (a) criminal and (b) very stupid.
