Attention, Brookline web surfers – Brookline has wireless Internet starting yesterday, and you now have free wi-fi for a month.
Alas, after that, you have to subscribe, but if you have a subscription, you can still hop online and surf if you are in Brookline. The SSID is Brookline Wireless.
The Brookline TAB has details on how the wireless works if you're just passing through Brookline and feel the urge to check your e-mail:
Other computer users will be able to get one free nonconsecutive hour of usage per day, per computer, in the town’s three major commercial districts, five of its parks and in all common areas of Brookline Housing Authority residences.
What do you think? Have you tried it? Is it working for you? How's the signal? Anything surprising blocked, a la the Infamous Boing Boing Boston Block?
