- Citywide WiFi: These article discuss the possibility of Aurora and Chicago offering citywide WiFi to their residents as a public service- like transportation and the library. Thought it was particularly interesting in relation to our reading from the other week- I wonder how much this would increase Internet/computer use among the poor. Probably not much, since the poor still won't necessarily have home PCs. But, it's a step (if it happens). http://www.chicagotribune.com/technology/chi-0511020059nov02,1,4613740.story?coll=chi-business-hed&ctrack=1&cset=true
