la chueca fon map

This map shows Chueca in Madrid, which is now 90 percent covered by FON. The whole project cost only thousands of dollars and is sustained through and by the community. [via MV] [link to El Mundo article in Spanish]. It certainly worked out a lot better than the Earthlink/Google project in San Francisco. [link]
The last time I spoke to Irish local authorities, they seemed determined to follow the San Francisco model rather than the Chueca model, which is a pity.
