Jeff Jarvis offers a good suggestion: list your hotel WiFi speed and tag it.
Dave Winer publishes his wi-fi speeds in his hotel rooms. I wish we’d all do that and name the hotels, holding those who don’t really offer high-speed to account (see my complaint about the Las Vegas Hilton here). If we all tagged these posts “hotelwifi� and put in the name of the hotel and its city, then we’d all be able to search on a hotel before we book to see whether they’re honest about their high-speed or not. Just a wish.
My wife, who was reading over my shoulder, just asked if “the Hotel Wifi” is a new place to stay in Greensboro!
I think it’d be nice to have a GSO hotel with excellent wifi! Or maybe it could be a movie.
Wifi at the Marriott in SF doesn’t exist unless you’re in a public space. I’m paying $13 a day to use wired (what, do people bring their desktop with them?)– and even that isn’t exactly zippy or completely reliable.
