摘要

"We will not stop until every San Franciscan has access to free wireless-internet service." It was a typically bold statement from Gavin New-som, the charismatic young mayor of San Francisco, as he announced plans in October 2004 for a Wi-Fi network that would blanket the city with wireless-internet coverage. Mr Newsom thus joined a nationwide movement of cities across America that are planning to provide wireless-broadband access for government workers, residents and businesses.
