hi
Whether you’re a computer pro or not, chances are you have plenty of reasons to boot one up for a quick search or to send someone a note.
If you don’t happen to be at work or home sitting in front of your favorite CPU, wireless access to the Internet using your lap top is an option if you can find a convenient place to log on.
An Internet search for Wi-Fi spots in Miami-Dade will display a number of web sites listing local businesses that offer this service, but private enterprise isn’t the only game in town.
City and county governments are providing wireless services to attract visitors and enhance communities for local residents. The Village of Pinecrest offers free wireless access at Greer and Suniland parks. The Village of Palmetto Bay offers service at Perrine and Coral Reef parks. You might want to browse their websites or call for hours of operation or closures due to renovations or improvements.
The Miami-Dade Public Library System is now offering free access in public areas of Wi-Fi-enabled libraries. Their web site gives a full list of Wi-Fi-enabled branches as well as step by step instructions on how to get connected.
Excellent information, Victor. Thanks. BTW, at Evelyn Greer and Suniland Parks the WI-FI spots are clearly marked in each park’s gazebo.
Great information. I was in St. Louis a few months ago and found out via a friend that there was one corner in the Central West End that had free wi-fi…it was great…I could bother Norby and everyone else in the office!
Supposedly Miami Beach is going to have free wi-fi throughout the beach in the near future. If all goes as planned, it will be available if you are on the ground or second floor. I spoke with a friend that is on ‘the committee’ and she claims that it will coming soon. Can you imagine having wi-fi on the beach? We can work from a lounge chair sitting under an umbrella. However, I am not sure that my laptop warranty will cover ’sand intrusion’.
The cafe at the new Whole Foods store in Coral Gables is also going to be Wi-Fi.
Thanks Betty. I’ve been enjoying your series on the parks btw.
Thanks for the comment Terry. I’ve heard about Miami Beach putting something together as well. You might have to start shopping around for a new sand resistant laptop soon.
Thanks for the info Jennifer.
Good information. It’s helpful to know where to stop when we are on the run and out of the office.
