FON Update
For those of you who have read our previous posts about FON, the WiFi community that allows for easy access to other people’s routers via specific “hotspots” such as coffee-shops, this is simply an update.
FON ended up giving away just under 7,000 routers, 5,000 more than they anticipated. They saw a huge increase of FON hotspots in highly dense, Starbucks-populated areas. In the U.S. as a whole there are now 70,000 FON hotspots, making it the number one market worldwide.
Also, their new advertising campaign involves a matador hanging around various storefronts trying to solicit people’s internet. Weird.
