That's a great website.  Who would've thought that the main part of downtown
Sacramento (and the tower bridge) would be a free wifi hotspot.  Cool...

Cheers,

Jeff

If you are interested in locating Free internet when traveling in your
Vanagon (or other vehicle), you can look them up ahead of time at
<http://www.wififreespot.com>

In addition (as I discovered) some states have free wi-fi hot spots (I
found one such at a rest stop on an Interstate in Iowa.)

In order to use most of these free spots, you normally have to pull up
a web page first (before you do anything else). Follow the instructions
on the intercept web page, then you'll be able to get mail, or
whatever.

I've used this in a Panera Bread store in Harrisonburg. Works fine. I
try to patronize the place too by purchasing something (even if is just
a drink).

Panera maintains it's own list of its stores (and which ones have wi-fi
hot spots.)
