Mayor White wants Internet bubble for Houston

Mayor Bill White stated Monday that if he wins re-election, one of the first things he'll do is push forward a plan to make the entire city of Houston Wi-Fi accessible. He claimed that he would call for bids within the first three months of his next term and plans to place the necessary equipment atop utility poles throughout the city.

Mayor White, with popularity polls scraping the ceiling, squeezed one more promise in before election day today. On Channel 11 last night, he was seen promising rapid action on a city-wide network. When the leader of the nation's 4th largest city takes the bull by the horns like this, you know that this movement has legs and that it is going to be one heck of a ride in the next year.

Strap on your seatbelts, folks, and hold on to your saddles!
