warchalking

Taken from http://www.warchalking.org/

quote:
Warchalking is the practice of marking a series of symbols on sidewalks and walls to indicate nearby wireless access. That way, other computer users can pop open their laptops and connect to the Internet wirelessly. It was inspired by the practice of hobos during the Great Depression to use chalk marks to indicate which homes were friendly.

Pretty interesting site/concept. Anyone actually seen any of these markings the streets yet?

I hope you have a "been posted before" macro, hate to think your stubby little digits are getting sore with all the typing we-who-haven't-read-every-thread are making you do.

edit: thx for the link G.
