The surf's up in
downtown Long Beach, California, a seaside city in Southern
California that has installed a free public high-speed wireless
Internet network to help attract visitors.
Web surfers in the cafes along the four blocks of the city's Pine
Avenue thoroughfare, within walking distance of the local convention
center, can now log on free to a wireless WiFi network set up by the
city and a group of technology companies, the city said on Monday.
