I’m Feeling Lucky–The Takeover Begins

Well, here’s something that might interest you. And if not, well, eye candy exists on the right.
The San Francisco controller’s office issued a favorable review Friday on a proposal by EarthLink and Google to provide the city with free wireless Internet access.
The report estimates residents could save $9 million to $18 million in Internet bills annually by having the option of choosing the EarthLink service, which will offer free access as well as a paid service that is cheaper than other broadband options like DSL and cable.
The report said the service will help the city bridge the digital divide, providing many residents with Internet service for the first time. It also noted it would be a boon to EarthLink, giving it a foothold in the San Francisco broadband market.
We know nothing about technology, but we love our wi-fi. We can’t wait for the day where every corner of the globe is suitable for our responsible blogging activities. And then we will all live in peace and harmony. Until Google assumes dictatorial powers over the world.
