With a hat tip to Rod, check out this Telco that actually encourages users to offer Wifi access to their neighbours – who would have thought, a hippy dippy co-operative doing telco stuff.
Whatever will happen next?
Now that’s a novel Telco
maybe a major ex-national telco doing a similar thing

Watch this space buddy!
Why is that people forget things we have here?
No need to go to Canada. We have examples here in New Zealand that people seem to miss: the small one is Zenbu (www.zenbu.net.nz) and the more estabished one is Tomizone (www.tomizone.com)- with agreements already in place with Orcon and Netgear. Tomizone is backed by big names.
Worldwide there’s FON (www.fon.com). British Telecom is giving people the opportunity to share with FON now through all their new connections.
