Free the Net – January 9, 2008

Do you hate paying for stuff….clothes, food, gas, etc. Well now (as long as you live in San Francisco) you can escape the evil grasp of internet providers, and get your web for free.

My friend Ken shared this growing secret with me known as Meraki. It’s a new company in the Bay Area that is focused on giving away the Internet. Their plan of attack is to hand out free signal repeaters to individuals/volunteers in the city so that Meraki wireless spreads faster than herpes in the Marina.

Hopefully, if Merkai can reach the goal of freeing the net in San Francisco, they will be able to achieve their goal of offering affordable internet access to the next billion people.

This “repater” boosts the spread of your/their signal so that it will blanket the entire city. If you want to become involved you can do so here. It’s totally free! My repeater is on its way.
