How unwired are we?
Looked for a place to get Internet access while out and about lately? Here's a survey of America's most unwired cities. These are cities with the most places to get wireless Internet connections: the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area comes in 20th in percentage of WiFi hotspots, beat out by places like Toledo and Baton Rouge. If you need to find a place to plug in, there are several sites that can find a WiFi connection for you. Try WiFi 411, WiFi Maps, or use Yahoo Maps and choose 'WiFi hotspots' from your search result. (Here are the WiFi hotspots near the Miami Herald building.) posted by liz at 6:39 PM
