Oh boy, free software.

July 25, 2007
In last week's Sunpapers I read about some software called iStumbler. This free download for Macs only allows the user to locate free wireless Internet anywhere within range. I was first intrigued by the name iStumbler as that could very well be my handle! And I own a MAC. And I live next door to an IBM employee who has a mega sophisticated set-up with wireless access. Now if I understand the article, iStumbler does a god job of finding open , nonpublic networks such as those set up in private residences. It's food for thought........ Not sure if I can live with the guilt though.
