Want to find free wi-fi in your area?
Today, in this century the internet is part of our daily lives. We use it to do almost everything from sharing information to shopping. It’s available to use on everything from phones to iPods, we just have to have it available through the phone network or wi-fi. Wi-fi is internet transmitted through the air, it’s available almost in every McDonalds except we have to pay to use it.
A good thing is now many places have it available free, many of those places are fast food places, coffee shops and most ariports. Of course, to be able to use it free you have to come into the shop and buy at least one thing. You can also get free wi-fi on certain streets, usually those streets are very popular or use wi-fi for some reason. There are many sites that find free wi-fi for you, i have listed a few below. Remember, while some are shown free, if they are in a fast food place or shop you need to buy something.
I read an article on the web a few months ago, were a man used “free” wi-fi from a coffee shop from his car. The owner found out somehow, (the article did not state how) and called the police. They surprisingly fined him, he took it to court and he was still fined. So, i guess that the “free” wi-fi found in places like that are not always free. I may seem wacky but I guess it’s fair. The owner does pay for the wi-fi service. In my opinion the Government should have wi-fi available in every city. I looked for free wi-fi nearby and my city doesn’t have any!
Websites you can use to find free internet!

This by far the best website to use. It focuses on hotels, malls, and libraries.
I found out the mall, nearby has free wi-fi, i could have been using the internet in there for years!

I also like this site, compares the same as the first. They have tools you can download to find wi-fi.
