Today on www.google.ca there is a link to "Google TiSP" for free wireless internet.

Apparently you just have to flush a fiber optic cable down your toilet and Google's PhDs will hook it up for you. I have a PhD, maybe they will hire me...

Happy surfing.

From their FAQ


Why is TiSP in beta?
When things go wrong with TiSP, they go very, very wrong. Let's leave it at that.

LOL! The FAQ are awesome!!


I'm having trouble installing or using TiSP.
Your internet connection should be working within one hour of GFlushing the sinker. If you still aren't online after that period of time, your toilet may be clogged. Please flush three more times, then check your online connection again. If you're still experiencing problems, drop eight mints into the bowl and add a two-liter bottle of diet soda. For further assistance, please visit the TiSP Help Group.
