Wi-Fi Really Big in Walla Walla
 
Most Wi-Fi hot spots are only a hundred yards wide. If your office isn't small, you'll need multiple access points. But in the state of Washington, Columbia Energy, a subsidiary of one of the state’s oldest rural electric cooperatives, is using the wireless technology to bring high-speed Internet service to that rural area. It’s creating what could be the world’s largest area with continuous Wi-Fi coverage: a 9,600-square-kilometer area spreading across parts of Walla Walla, Columbia, and Umatilla Counties.
 
It's nice to see Walla Walla and Umatilla counties on the cutting edge!
