New Orleans set to launch the nation’s first municipally owned free Wi-Fi
Hurricane-ravaged New Orleans will deploy the nation’s first municipally owned wireless Internet system that will be free for all users, part of an effort to jump-start recovery by making living and doing business in the city as attractive as possible.
The system, which Mayor C. Ray Nagin is scheduled to announce at a news conference Tuesday, also will be used by police and for city government functions, such as speeding approval of building permits.
