Wi Fi on the Mall

Don't you just hate it when you're playing in your kickball league on the mall and there is a dispute among the teams as to whether the infield fly rule applies in kickball as well as baseball? If no one has a rule book, you're screwed, right? Well, a DC-based non-profit organization named Open Park is out to fix that irritating problem, as well as countless others caused by the the lack of internet access on the National Mall.

Yesterday, Open Park "launched the first public outdoor wireless Internet hotspot in the nation’s capital" according to a press release. The hotspot is the first step in Open Park's plan to provide free wireless access across the National Mall.
