My colleague Cyrus Farivar put together this radio item on municipal Wi-Fi worldwide: The program that commissioned it wound up not having room to use it, but they provided him a produced and mixed version that's worth listening to. His blurb:
"Over the last few years, wireless Internet access, known as WiFi, has become more and more widespread. Various cities, ranging from Philadelphia to Paris are currently building citywide WiFi networks. There are other efforts to wirelessly connect whole countries as well, like in Macedonia and Estonia. But each country’s path is different."
Farivar interviews relentless Wi-Fi promoter Veljo Haamer, who is more responsible for the spread and availability of Wi-Fi in Estonia than anyone for their own country elsewhere in the world.
