Look Ma, No Wires
A number of innovative groups have recently begun to apply wireless networking technology in community-based settings. The Center for Neighborhood Technology has been one of those groups. Its Wireless Community Networks project is testing the economic and technical feasibility of providing low-cost broadband service to low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, many residents of which cannot afford current market offerings. CNT sees this as a mechanism for both further bridging the Digital Divide, and spurring economic development. CNT is one of the groups featured in Look Ma, No Wires, a recent article in The Non-Profit Times.
