Milwaukee to build citywide wireless network

In a bit of news that should cross the partisan divide, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett announced plans to build a wireless network that would cover the entire city. Residents would pay about $20/mo. to access system with a discount to low-income residents.

I think this is a great idea. This should help Milwaukee grow its professional class and lure jobs to the city. It will also give low income families more tools and skills to help themselves. Let's hope this is implemented as soon as possible.
