REAL FREE WI-FI, NO DOWNTIME!

Muslim Quarter, Jerusalem.

Walking down the main road of one of Tel Aviv's main shopping avenues, something happens on your phone. It picks up an open Wi-Fi network and, when you click on, it connects directly through to the internet. No payment, no subscription, no password, no credit card. According to Tel Aviv mayor Ron Huldai, installing a free network demonstrates the city's aim of being a leader in innovation. But it doesn't stop there; whither in the Muslim Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem in an ancient shop called Sinjlawi, on a bus or any of the places you'd expect it to be, you'll find there's free Wi-Fi. This has a simple implication: for someone trying to start or run a business, travel no longer means downtime. (Image: Copyright Control)

The story of the Glass House is one of the most fascinating historical events of that era; and much like the man behind the operation, this event has somehow evaded public attention and never received the recognition it deserved.
