The event known as South by Southwest (SXSW) is one of the year's major music festivals, taking place each March-ish in Austin, TX. Because the annual crush of people weakens the city's wireless infrastructure, an unaffiliated agency came up with a solution: Homeless Hotspots. Essentially, the homeless shelter sets up residents to wear wireless routers from whom festival attendees can purchase wireless service. The residents keep all the profits.
From the HH website:
As digital media proliferates, these newspapers face increased pressure. Our hope is to create a modern version of this successful model, offering homeless individuals an opportunity to sell a digital service instead of a material commodity. SxSW Interactive attendees can pay what they like to access 4G networks carried by our homeless collaborators. This service is intended to deliver on the demand for better transit connectivity during the conference.
