Logan replies to Sideguide query

Posted by Russell Senior on 26 September 2007

Here is what Logan Kleier reports in reply to my query about the MSN Sideguide software:

MetroFi is not currently using this product, but is working with MSN on its rollout. They do not have a specific rollout date scheduled for Portland.

According to MSN and MetroFi, this product will not exclude non-MS operating systems. Non-MS operating systems will still be able to utilize the free ad banner network. This product is designed as more of a substitute for the current ad banners.

Given this information, MetroFi remains committed to fulfilling all of its privacy obligations under its contract with the City of Portland.

    Russell, tried to send you an email but it got bounced. Maybe you can drop me one if you get a moment. I’m interested to hear how well you think the municipal wifi is progressing.

    Cheers,

    Chris
