WiFi Wednesday: Luck of the Irish Edition

With three days to go before St. Patrick's Day, we've got Ireland on the brain. The situation in Dublin is suspiciously similar to the one in Boston we told you about last year. (Recently, the FCC stepped in to allow a free hotspot in the Continental Presidents Club.) Still, unless you're in the club, you gotta pay to play. In Boston, it's eight bucks a day. In Dublin, that means a minimum of 3 euro just to check your email.

So where can you get online for free to finalize your St. Pat's festivities? Try Shannon Airport. You'll have to register, and you're only allowed five hours of online time a day, but if you hit that limit, you've got bigger problems. Honestly, who would spend five hours at the airport?
