Surfing the net in your pajamas from the convenience of home is great... but when you want to get some fresh air, try surfing the net on the go! Many restaurants, bars, hotels, cafes, and other establishments provide free wireless access as a courtesy to the customer. Take your notebook, wireless card, and get ready for a whole new experience! Somehow checking your email or online shopping doesn't seem as lonely when there are others enjoying a cup of joe and doing the same around you. Check out these places to try it out!
