Anyone make their own wokfi?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WokFi

I made one for a client and I'm about to make one for a family member and another for myself for my mobile unit. I have an ASUS 900sd netbook and will be using a USB wifi device to make a wokfi that I can wardrive with and also connect with free wifi spots and my own wifi spot from a long distance.

I think I'm going to have it so I can attach it to my camera tripod if I want. I have a 10 feet long USB cord for it. I can't wait to get the USB wifi dongle in the mail this week. I'm hoping it'll be today. Here's the one I bought,

$9.99
"Netgear WN111 RangeMax NEXT Wireless N Adapter - USB 2.0, Recertified"

The dish I made for a client was the done with an aluminum reflector for a brooder light/heat lamp.

Just so you know, "wardriving" is the practice of driving around and looking for wifi hotspots, but does not include connecting to them. Wardriving is legal, but piggybacking is not legal. Piggybacking is when you connect to someone else's wifi network without their permission. A lot of times ignorant news media thinks that wardriving = piggybacking which it does not. Wardriving programs turn your wifi device into a listening device only and during that time it can not connect to a wifi network in the first place. It's akin to driving down the street and writing down names on mail boxes or the house numbers.

I just wanted to clarify that, for anyone that did not already know that info.

In my backyard I have an old satellite dish from HughesNet I want to convert to a wifi dish. I think it's like 2 feet in diameter. I'd get amazing gain on it.

Here's one I'm working on today for a client. The dish hasn't been painted yet and the mount for the wifi antenna is not yet in place. This one gets used indoors on a ceiling.

I think I started that thread. But yea, chances are if you've been on the internet long enough to find Megachan, you'll be aware of Occupy without it needing to come in here.

I wonder if we are more often the cynical type? Maybe the cynical type with a store of canned fish and shotgun shells.

Mostly non-fish canned foods for me, thx. The last thing I need in the PAW is a case of heavy metal poisoning.

Those of you who visit the front page will no doubt have noticed that I've put up a new front page.

I'm not a web designer, but I think it looks a bit better than the previous one :)

Haven't had the chance, I am starting a new job at the end of the month though, hopefully I'll have more time then.

Also, I dunno which of the banners to use, lol

Huge gifs are kind of useless when we have flash but maybe bits of it could be made into gifs. I've been meaning to learn how to do that, and this video might serve as good fodder for experimenting. Apparently, I have the software already.

Wrong. Everything is more fun as a .gif. Flash is just so boooring.

So I was thinking about an alternate timeline where traditional semiconductors were not and could not have been developed.

Basically progressing from everything pre 1950s (for simplicity) and seeing where it would go and how things would turn out.

It mains no transistors obviously as the main thing but also some diodes, leds, microchips etc.

I was trying to think what could not have ever been developed without semiconductor utilising computers and other machines and what would have just been slowed down but could still have been developed given time.

Valves man..
