Funny Story of the Week

I am not making this up. Before Opie's new pals from the Bay Area can start building the city's "free" wifi system, they have to cut a deal with PGE for use of their power! That ought to be a fun relationship.

Oh, and already it won't work with the parking meters like they said it would. Uh huh...

Don't forget: One-inch banner ads are going to pay for it all, too. Sure. Sounds like a deal only Paul Allen would make.

This could end up being more fun than the water billing system.

Here's something you probably did not know...the Portland School District is giving the "free" wifi folks unlimited access to district structures for placement of their repeaters all for a measly 10mbps extra bandwith per location.
