BostonWAG is helping organize a community forum about WiFi that is happening in preparation of the city's WiFi Summit in May. The community forum will take place on Tuesday, April 19th in the Johnson Building of the Boston Public Library's Copley Branch in conference rooms 5/6 on Boylston Street in Copley Square.

The press release about the forum (quoted below) is on BostonWAG's website at www.bostonwag.org/summit/WiFi...Release_2.pdf

BostonWAG is one of several local organizations involved in a special task force formed to plan the WiFi Summit, which will be held on Thursday, May 19 at the Museum of Science, Boston. The task force is now seeking input from community residents on how they think wireless technology could be used to make Boston a more attractive place to live, work, go to school and conduct business. Representatives of local community groups, grassroots organizations, and non-profit agencies are invited to participate in the forum.

The WiFi Summit is being organized and sponsored by the City of Boston, the Office of Boston City Councillor John M. Tobin, Jr., the Boston Foundation, and the Museum of Science. Planners hope to draw hundreds of representatives from the community and the academic, business, technology and public sectors to explore how wireless technology could be expanded to benefit residents, workers and businesses across the city.
