8.3. The Future

With support from all over the globe, community wireless projects are bringing people together to build a communications network focused on utility, not profit. This project has brought more geeks out from behind their computer screens than any other I've encountered. These people are moved to get out, meet their neighbors, and build something new out of a simple desire to communicate with each other. From every indication, the community wireless network seems to be an idea whose time has finally come.
