London gets free Wi-Fi, but you must view ads

By

A free metropolitan Wi-Fi network has been launched in London, continuing the gradual trend toward free public wireless Internet access in Europe and the United States. It’s not totally free though as users are subjected to an advertisement every 15 minutes that they are logged on.

The free network, which is being marketed at “Online-4-free.com,” gives users free access if they agree to view an advertisement of 15 to 30 seconds in length every 15 minutes. If users don’t want to view the ads, they are charged one of a range of fees, including $6 (2.95 pounds) per hour or $20 (9.95 pounds) a month.
