ANOTHER FINE PIECE OF ANALYTICAL WORK
Glenn’s analysis is always rock solid

Wired-less magazine on Wi-Fi: The whole article is up, so I can comment in depth. Conceptually, the piece is flawed: as is the case with much technology/social journalism, the author and editors picked a poster child, Sky Dayton, and his company to a lesser extent, and made them the avatar for an industry. Dayton and Boingo are important components in the evolution of commercial hot spot service, but are one set of nexi. It’s an important distinction: they’re not the center, but they’re at one center of many. Did this article want to be a profile of Sky Dayton and morph into a Wi-Fi piece? [80211b News]
