Nokia sponsors first month of City Wi-Fi

It seems like a long time since I wrote about The Cloud's plans to roll out a Wi-Fi network across the entire City of London. It is: more than a year.

This week, however, it's launched - and what's more, although normally it would set you back a few quid, Nokia has decided to sponsor the first month and offer it to everyone free.

Note, though, that this isn't across the entire city of London - but across the City: the Square Mile district chock-full of bankers, executives and other money makers.

Still, assuming that Wi-Fi doesn't kill you (!), it's great news for the people living and working inside the Square Mile - unfortunately Guardian Towers sits just on the fringe of the zone, meaning I'll have to pop down the road to log on.
