Meet George Jetson

A few weeks ago the blog addressed the installation of wireless Internet connections throughout the entire city of Philadelphia. Since that time local periodicals have addressed the possibility of wirelss Internet in Boston and some communities in the Merrimack valley. The installation cost is minor in comparison to the benefits that come from providing high speed Internet connection on a mass level. Most computers are now being sold with internal wireless network cards. A "Jettson like" view of the registry of deeds, has users moving freely around the registry, perhaps searching registry Internet records with their own laptops. People working at a convenient table or study carrell anywhere in the building, free from the restrictions posed by wired public access terminals that are available in limited numbers. Maybe "Jetson like" is not the right phrase. The way technology is advancing this could be possible sooner than one thinks.
