Hold Your Horses on That Free Wifi at the ASA
In the comments to an earlier post, I claimed that there would be free wifi at the ASA meetings in Montreal, because the conference center told me that the ASA had paid for it. However, I just got an email from the ASA, and apparently they will be charging $17/day CAD for that wifi. (No charge for the grimy message center computer with the half-hour wait, Alan).
Now, considering that this is the first ASA I can remember that actually has wifi, maybe I shouldn't complain, but doesn't $17/day seem excessive? Even Starbucks only charges $11.
But, I guess it will all be worth it now that Drek can simulblog the conference in its entirety. I'm looking forward to reading that!

Yee gods, that would be interesting. It'd be like a scavenger hunt- try to figure out who/where Drek is by watching which panels he's at.
Of course, that would only be the case if people gave a rat's ass. So, looks like I'm safe.
Woo-hoo!
17 bucks a day? Geeze. Three days of that costs more than a month of my home broadband.
