The topic I chose to blog about is Wi-Fi. A device equipped with Wi-Fi has the ability to connect to the Internet when it is within the range of a wireless network. The name itself is believed to stand for "wireless fidelity." Wi-Fi was developed in the year 1999, but over time has grown in popularity. It was invented by a non-profit organization known as the Wi-Fi Alliance to promote wireless local-area-network technology.
Many different devices have the ability to be equipped with Wi-Fi. These include computers, video game consoles, cell phones, MP3 players, and laptops. In addition to personal use, many organizations offer free Wi-Fi as a way of attracting customers. These areas of public Wi-Fi access are known as "hotspots."
