Freifunk.net - Social Networking for Real Life Communities

by Dietpunk for Freifunk

Freifunk.net tries to replicate the decentralized, self organized character of real life communities by enabling citizens to build their own community-wide WLAN. Even though these networks are connected to the internet and might be seen as a free citizen-provided community-wide WLAN-Access their organizational localization and decentralization is their real strong point. The next step is to open these structures for not highly computer-literate people by simplifying their use and services.
