The "New" features in IE 7. We don’t want free Wi-Fi.

by David Spark on October 19, 2006

Windows released Internet Explorer 7 today. Don’t get so excited over the “new” features like tabbed browsing which have already been a part of Firefox and many second-tiered browsers for more than six years.

Free Wi-Fi in San Francisco may take a little longer than we expected. Last night a town hall meeting degenerated into shouting at Google and Earthlink, the companies that will be building the free wireless infrastructure.

One owner of a multi-unit property threatened Google saying he would have no part of the free Wi-Fi and that he would block the signal from his renters. The Google rep reassured the angry landlord that he can’t block the air.
