Wireless and yet not connected

Totally fun CNET article from the NY Times about the pitfalls of connecting to public hot spots and actually getting out onto the "real" and worldwide Internet.

Whee, I have an MSN Space...now what?

Robert Scoble points to coverage of the MSN Spaces launch outside of Japan, which has been already predicted for a while, and finally talked about yesterday .
