Re: Can Google Jump-Start Muni Wi-Fi?
by bsharwood
I would have thought you, Mark, would have some imagination on how this could be used. The possibilities are enormous. Don't think of it simply as subscribers opening up their laptops to surf the web. It's much more than that. What about streetcars, with dynamic advertising on them. When the vehicle is in a nice part of town you could feed ads for BMWs, and in less attractive neighbourhoods, maybe MoneyMart. You could feed TV over the network too, just TV people could pick up at home or in the office. Then, of course, there's the cell-phone substitution market, and skype phones. What about the transit authorities? don't they need a better cheaper wireless network to track their assets and cash? and keep the buses running on time? The possibilties are only limited to ones imagination. And if the network fails, or the business fails it will only be due to a lack of imagination of businesses to understand how to use it.
