100,000 Wireless Hotspots Worldwide
January 23, 2006
JiWire announced today that there are now more than 100,000 wireless Hotspots listed in its worldwide directory — which, as Wi-Fi Networking News points out, is is a huge jump from the 57,000 hotspots the directory was listing a year ago.
Matt Hamblen's ComputerWorld article goes into much more detail on this — noting, of course, that the fact that wireless hotspots have only been around for about four years so far makes this all the more impressive.
