Sitting here in a friend’s apartment smack bang in the centre of Manhattan I find 6 open wireless networks,all for the taking. Beats anywhere I’ve been in London.

    There's a hotel not too far from the southern office that I've never booked. It's usually pretty cheap. Turns out the rooms aren't bad and it seems to have an excellent Indian restaurant. (Well, rather it's an Indian restaurant with a few rooms). Off to try the food
