FON in Forbes
FON founder Martin Varsavsky is featured in Forbes.com (sign up for a free subscription). During the interview he discusses how FON came to be; "Innovation usually comes from frustration, something I think is stupid or unreasonable," he says. "The telcos promised a fast, wireless Internet, but they mostly delivered a slow, walled garden. Fon is a movement. It is a telco built by the people." The article also features Peter Stern, an executive vice president at Time Warner discussing the benefits of FON. It's great to see our movement getting attention from the mainstream media!
