When first I heard of war driving, it was an exotic sport, unreachable by my
|
||
|
|
meager means. You needed a portable machine with Wi-Fi and a link to a GPS
|
||
|
|
unit. The nicer setups directly populated a map so you could enjoy your
|
||
|
|
finds at a glance. There was even a written language devised called war
|
||
|
|
shocking so you could leave a mark to others that Wi-Fi is available here.
|
||
|
|
Now all you need to do is load war drive onto your smartphone, put on a good
|
||
|
|
pair of minimalist shoes, and go for a walk.
|
||
|
|
Currently on the database of my Android phone there are 114 connections
|
||
|
|
detected of which 18 are wide open. After a good walk while running
|
||
|
|
war drive you can go into the settings and upload your database to wiggle.net so
|
||
|
|
everyone can enjoy your treasure hunt. One of the best things about war
|
||
|
|
driving is seeing how creative your neighbors can be. The following is a selected
|
||
|
|
reading of SSID's. VW Audi Guest, Nighthawk, Freddie, Myohana 6, Jeff is the
|
||
|
|
man, Striker, Deepcore, Local Area Connection, Barcode, Rush, Foxclan, Peabody,
|
||
|
|
Mission, QB Tax Plan, Monkey, Higo, and Cactus Grass.
