Free Austin
Free Austin
11/10/2003 10:53 PMThis Austin Statesman story ran last week; if you missed it, it's
worth checking out: Austin has a thriving Wi-Fi community, many of
whom believe that hot spots should be free. One group of volunteers
that will set up a hot spot for venue, sometimes using donated gear. I
talked to Rich MacKinnon, the founder of Less Networks and a driving
force behind Austin’s free networks movement, and was impressed by his
passion and drive. While this article points out that the free hot
spots in Austin are often more crowded then the cafes where you have
to pay to get online, I still think that ultimately there will be
space for both free and fee. The trick will be offering something
worth paying for in the fee sites, such as added security or
guaranteed bandwidth....

Austin to New Jersey with Wireless
Austin to New Jersey with Wireless
05/03/2004 08:42 PMNew York Times staffer John Schwartz drives his daughter from Austin
to New Jersey in search of colleges and Wi-Fi: Schwartz is a keen
observer of the Wi-Fi scene, and he writes of his fairly easy process
of finding Wi-Fi hotspots along his long route. He includes a bit of
found poetry from the Flying J, one of the many thousands of truck
stops that are or will become hotspots over the next year: God Bless
America / Position Open / Wireless Available. Schwartz started in
Austin, and he also filed this article about the work being carried
out by Richard MacKinnon, Jon Lebkowsky, and a cast of dozens involved
in Austin Wireless City to spread free Wi-Fi across the town....

in Republic Square Park: The two have also partnered for hotspots at
One Texas Center and city hall. Republic Square is the first of four
Austin parks to get wireless. The City of Austin is apparently really
supportive of Austin Wireless City projects, which will only encourage
more Wi-Fi in Austin....
Free and Easy in Austin
Free and Easy in Austin
11/03/2003 11:13 AMAustin's free hotspot locations grow: This article implies that Austin
is unique, and while it does have an interesting confluence of several
trends -- and Schlotzsky's and Wayport are both headquartered there --
there are dozens of free locations in other large cities as well. It
seems to be more of a coalescing community attitude, however, that
free hotspots make more sense than for-fee ones that's provoked this
and similar articles. The Schlotzsky's survey, by the way, is months
old, but the company keeps bringing it out. They have both free
computer access (via Apple iMacs) and free wireless at their test
stores, and their survey showed that six percent of visitors to the
stores during the survey came because of wireless access. At $7 for an
average customer purchase, that equates to $100,000 in gross
additional revenue per store, not overall, as the article implied. But
Schlotzsky's should really revamp those numbers given the massive
publicity they've received and the length of the experiment. [via

Austin
Podcast: On Site with Wayport's CEO in
Austin
03/19/2005 02:24 AM
During my
visit to Austin this week, I stopped by Wayport and recorded this
interview: David Vucina, CEO of Wayport, the leading
hotspot infrastructure builder, reseller network, and managed services
operator in the industry, lead me on a tour around their new facility
in Austin, Texas. I have to say it's quite impressive. I wondered
aloud why all the functions of the company were in one place:
warehouse, hotspot assembly, customer service, network operation
system, system management, and administration. But after taking the
tour, it was pretty clear: the company is more like a big IT
(information technology) department for hire than, for instance, an
Internet service provider.
There are times in this virtual world when it's useful seeing
firsthand how things are done. For instance, I was able to see the
assembly facility Wayport is using to prep the equipment that goes
into the field. They have a separate area for assembling custom
McDonald's boxes because they're putting so many of them together. The
assembly manager said that they had shipped over 400 hotspot boxes of
all kinds in a recent day. They're typically handling site surveys for
25 to 100 sites per week, and that isn't slacking off.
A customer service operator gave me a tour through their CRM software
that lets them slice and dice problems in a variety of ways, such as
all previous problems that hotel room or how that particular user
authenticated onto their network. This is typical stuff for any robust
customer service/technical support operation, but the tools are quite
nice and the Tier 2 reps have access to very level technical details
about the access point or access port.
In the 30-minute audio interview I recorded with Vucina, we talked
largely about the hotspot world, Wayport's position in it, and what
the company will do when the U.S. becomes largely unwired. We also
spoke about the nature of Wi-Fi in complement to 3G cellular data.
You can download the interview as a plain MP3
file [15 MB] or as a ZIP
archive of that file [11 MB]

Austin Works to Trump Starbucks
02/19/2004 12:43 PMPartners in Free Wi-Fi, Austin Wireless, and Less Networks are
offering free music to hotspots users in Austin: The groups have been
working together to help local venues build free hotspots. The
offering starts today and will extend through the end of SXSW 2004,
the music festival. Hotspot users, who don't pay for access, will be
able to listen to more than 500 songs for free. Users must have the
iTunes player and the songs are available through Apple iTunes music
share. Less Networks sees this as a one-up on an earlier Starbucks
offering where visitors could listen to a CD for free. The groups have
built 25 locations in Austin since September and have 3,600 registered
users. Around 100 people log on to the networks every day. Workers
don't charge venues for the help in setting up the networks or the
software, which lets venues manage the hotspot....

Austin Project Featured at SXSW
Austin Project Featured at SXSW
03/06/2004 01:49 AMThe Austin Chronicle takes a look at the Austin Wireless City
Project's initiatives around the SXSW music festival, which happens
next weekend: The project is offering free iTunes music to users of
the free hotspots set up by the project. In addition, the IC2
Institute, a research unit of the University of Texas, is making a
presentation during an Interactive Conference going on in conjunction
with the festival. The institute will talk about how everyday people
can benefit from connectivity. Howard Rheingold, who wrote Smart Mobs:
The Next Social Revolution, will also speak at the conference. Other
coverage of the Austin Wireless City Project's efforts include a story
written by its co-founder, Rich MacKinnon. He offers a really great
description of all the parties that benefit when a venue offers free
hotspots. He gives the example of a free hotspot at an Austin
restaurant and describes how a consultancy made money to install the
router, a printing company was paid to make new coasters touting the
free Wi-Fi, MacKinnon's company Less Networks pays a hosting facility
to support the hotspot and a PR firm is paid to promote the free
hotspots. He notes that even the big companies make money here,
including Kinko's which printed a new sign, CompUSA which sold the
access point, which was made by Buffalo, and SBC which provides the
DSL connection. The list actually goes on, offering a strong argument
for the business case behind free hotspots. [both links via Less
