internet cafes

Internet cafes are a wonderful place to visit for the awakening scent of coffee beans and the sounds of espresso coffee concoctions steaming into a delicious blend of gourmet coffee. Internet cafes are more common in places outside of the United States and you typically pay an hourly fee in order to use the cafes internet services.

However, more and more cafes are going wireless. Can these wireless cafes be considered internet cafes? Yes and no. Internet cafes typically have available desk top computers for use, whereas many other cafes require you to bring your own laptop for use.

Starbucks is a very popular cafe that isn't an internet cafe that offers wireless. Unfortunately, such wireless services are typically more expensive than your average internet cafes.

A great place to get free internet is at Coffee Plantation. All you have to do is order coffee and you have free use of the internet from your wireless laptop.

From a logical business perspective, I think that internet cafes and conventional cafes should offer wireless internet for free. If wireless internet is offered for free, then people are more willing to purchase food and drinks- especially, since they'll be encouraged to stay longer due to the free use of internet connection.
