The Wifi nodes are trying to tell us something. Anything.

Expression is leaky - it seems to fill nearly any text input available. Here's a sample list of SSIDs I've noticed while riding to work.

    This is a delightful list. Perhaps naming your AP is the "come up with a cool band name" for those of us with no musical talents.

    I could probably be friends with someone who names their AP "Neoplastic Stereo Broadcast" just based on the name alone.

    MyPlace sounds like a FON router.

    Babaloo sounds like the name of a certain Brazillian pronstar.

    So, here's the thing ... your video for Google Reader is very popular. All of us are wondering ... ARE YOU SINGLE?? I'm surprised your blog isn't flooded with love letters already.

    We demand an encore.
