Welcome to our wireless downtown community
| Thanks to the great response from the community the pilot has been declared
a success and the service will continue free of charge.
The Digital Downtown six-month pilot has ended. Thanks to Medical
Manager Health Systems, a WebMD
Company, for sponsoring this project. |
Digital Downtown is a community-based initiative to
provide free wireless Internet access in downtown Gainesville. This service
operates in the area of the Downtown Community Plaza, Courthouse, City
Hall, downtown restaurants and main library. Any citizen or organization
owning a PDA or laptop with a wireless card can easily use the Internet
for free, allowing him/her to access e-mail, chat, browse the Web or listen
to radio over the Internet while moving freely through the coverage area.
The project endeavors to create a more open community and transform
Downtown Gainesville, and ultimately the University of Florida and the
City of Gainesville as a whole, into a more connected, networked community
that is in touch with itself and the world.
