(apologies for cross-posting)
I'm writing an article for Spacing magazine (spacing.ca) about the real-life impact of WiFi availability; specifically, its (immediate, tangible) potential to transform the way people work. So many of us complain that our work requires us to be in front of a networked computer almost all day; WiFi seemed to promise some kind of liberation. I personally haven't yet been able to experience this benefit (but I'm still hopeful)... are there people out there who have?
I'd like to hear about: * people who use public (ie. parks) or pseudo-public (ie. cafes) spaces as their primary work environments * the positive or negative impact of the presence of these "wireless workers" have on these spaces * people's reactions to the idea of working outside of an office: a bad idea? if not, why aren't you doing it? is it only appropriate for a very particular kind of worker?
If you have any relevant thoughts/experiences/stories/references, I'd love to hear from you. While my interest in this subject extends beyond simply writing this article, my deadline requires that I get research & interviews done this week. Thanks!
