It really should. We have come so far—so, so far—from the days of dumb dialup. And it’s not like the technology doesn’t exist (hello Boing, MiFi, et al.) So, why oh why is mobile Wi-Fi still so shitty?
I shouldn’t turn down a trip to Maine just because I’m worried I won’t be able to work from the cabin. I shouldn’t have to book train tickets and bus tickets at odd hours just to ensure I’ll be stationary and connected to a strong signal in time to do my job. I don’t want to take any more midnight trains to Georgia Virginia!
Dear mobile Wi-Fi, please get better. Image by malex.org under Creative Commons license
