Note: This site is currently "Under construction". I'm migrating to a new version of my site building software. Lots of things are in a state of disrepair as a result (for example, footnote links aren't working). It's all part of the process of building in public. Most things should still be readable though.

Public Wireless

I was browsing thru the public library when I got a call about an error on the site. That happens. The cool thing is the library has open wireless. So, I just pulled out the laptop and jumped on.

I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to get all the way into the stuff that I need at the office, but the VPN (Virtual Private Network) worked like a champ.

Sometimes open wireless won't let you use a VPN, but it wasn't a problem. It's actually wild to think that you could completely run an online business these days without having your own internet connection. In fact, if you were willing to use the library computers, you wouldn't even have to have your own. Just pay $10/month for a web account.

Of course, you could probably even set one up for free somewhere, but you get the idea.
