Density Projects/ko
From FON Wiki Beta
FON Density projects objective is turning complete neighborhoods into free and open WiFi Zones. Places where you can always be connected and where WiFi is cheap (for non FON members) or free. They are also grassroots efforts to bring WiFi to all through the contributions of individual business owners and residents. By everyone sharing a bit of their internet connection, we can make internet access pervasive and available to all. We hope FON Density projects will set an example for neighborhoods and cities of how a community based approach can be successful in creating WiFi coverage.
Residents who want to become Foneros and share some of their broadband with the rest of the FON Community gain free and unlimited access to over 250,000 FON Spots around the world. Residents and all of our Foneros visiting the neighborhood will enjoy WiFi coverage.

Shoreditch
Shoreditch is an area of London within the London Borough of Hackney. It is a built-up part of the inner city immediately to the north of the City of London, located 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north east of Charing Cross. Its historic heart is Shoreditch High Street and Shoreditch Church. In the past the area of Shoreditch was defined by the borders of the parish of Shoreditch which also defined the borders of the Metropolitan Borough of Shoreditch. Since 1965, when the latter unit of local government was dissolved, it has been more fuzzily defined. Contemporary Shoreditch is often seen as the area bordered to the north by Old Street, to the east by the northern end of Brick Lane, to the south by Spitalfields market and to the west by Old Street Station. However, Hoxton to the north of Old Street was historically part of Shoreditch parish and borough and is still, often, conflated with it.

Genève
Geneva's plans to create an Internet connected community has moved a step ahead, with the city's announcement that 500 citizens will be invited to join Fon Geneva, the international wifi community, free of charge in return for making their own wifi connection free to others in Geneva. Fon is a Spanish company whose founder Martin Varsavsky has spent much time in Geneva, has made waves in the Internet industry for separating public and private wifi signals, making it possible to safely provide very cheap or free Internet access to large numbers of people.
This is the second phase of Geneva's wifi project: the first was completed in June when the city set up several wifi access points in parks and other public areas.
