The Bracebridge Business Improvement Area (BIA) is looking at developing a wireless network to cover the downtown of this central Muskoka town. The objective is to “increase the attractiveness of Downtown Bracebridge for visitors while at the same time providing a direct benefit to BIA members.” Proposals are due on August 1.
Inukshuk wireless internet is available on the lake through Rogers Portable Internet or Sympatico Unplugged. Barrett Xplorenet is also available through a local agent.
Still, I have found myself going into a shop looking for a couple minutes of access time, so the objective is understandable.
Tuesday’s Toronto Star ran a story about the Toronto Hydro WiFi project that might create some points for discussion as Bracebridge moves forward.
