Send to KindleThis holiday season, let’s call Google the WiFi gods. From now until January 15, Google is footing the bill for WiFi at 47 select U.S. airports. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again—In Google We Trust. Of course this is spoken by a BlackBerry-carrying MacBook using Firefox fan. But, G1, Android and Chrome aside, we cannot even begin to measure the impact Google has had on daily life.
Google is also using the opportunity to encourage users to donate to three organizations: Engineers Without Borders, the One Economy Corporation or the Climate Savers Computing Initiative. Google will match donations made across all networks up to $250,000. In addition, the airport network that generates the highest amount per passenger by January 1 will get $15,000 to donate to the local nonprofit of their choice.
