From time to time I will post a technical word or term that we frequently hear, but have no real idea of what it means. Oh yes, you can chuckle about it, but not everybody knows the difference between gigabytes and Web 2.0. For most folks, as long as it works when you turn on, it's all good!
The word for right now is: Wireless Fidelity or more commonly
known as WiFi. Go into any coffee house or hip trendy place and you
will see it is available.
Definition of WiFi:
It is a local area network that uses high frequency radio signals to transmit and receive data over distances of a few hundred feet.
