Blogging from Starbucks I finally finished the re-design for OnPoint Digital and now I'm at Starbuck's, uploading the release. My dad bought a subscription to T-Mobile's wireless network - and this is the first time he's had an opportunity to use it. He gets 24 hours free, and then $3/hour after that. Not a bad deal. It sucked that I had to put in 40 hours during my vacation, while my parents where in town - but oh well, it's good to be done. Our ISP is sending someone out on Thursday, so hopefully they'll fix everything at that time - and I can start blogging more - or maybe I'll be lucky enough to find satisfaction in being non-productive for awhile. ;-) Posted in Roller at Apr 14 2003, 01:52:22 PM MDT 3 Comments

I haven't since this in person...how did it work? You have a PowerBook with an Airport card, right? Just curious to see how easy/difficult it was, and what type of speeds you got.

Did you make any design changes to your site? Suddenly, the CSS seem to be all messed up with the right sidebar eating up two-thirds of the screen...

mjang, Yes, I do have a PowerBook with an airport card - it was actually very simple. All I did was select the wireless network from my airport menu, and then when I browsed the web, I was prompted for a username/password by TMobile - entered it and I was on. My dad said they had a single T1 at that location - which to me implied that some Starbucks might have multiple T1's. It was very easy and I'd recommend it highly. The one thing thing is that they do charge you a minimum of one hour per session. jorge - no design changes - is it any better now, or still screwed up? Matt
