How to get free wireless at any airport
So I'm sitting in the US Airways (I know I know) terminal at LaGuardia right now. And guess how I got online? Yep, I paid $7.95 to a company called Boingo, which supplies the wireless connection.But now that I'm online, I just found a great little trick that lets you save that $7.95 and get free wireless Internet at any airport. Here's all you have to do:
Add "?.jpg" after any website address. That's it. For instance, if you want Google, just type in www.google.com/search?.jpg/.
Enjoy!

Hi Jerry,
This doesn't work at every airport - only at Atlanta, and even then, many readers of the original post report that it's no longer working there.

You can also go sit on the floor outside the President's club (or other airlines first-class lounges) and poach the rich people's WiFi -- this works great in Houston.

I do backflips down the concourse at each airport I travel through when I discover they have complimentary WiFi. I *get* why we should let the free market provide it, but wireless Internet is an exception that every airport should offer.
