  • I just stumbled across this mind map that was instigated by Robin Good.

Map of wifi in Birmingham

  • January 17, 2009 at 3:53 am

  • This collaboratively produced Google map shows where you can get wifi in Birmingham (UK), and whether or not it’s free. It will continue to evolve as more places are added. Hopefully it will grow much bigger as more places offer wifi. Anyone can add to the map (just follow the guidelines).
