What FON Could Become

That a Spanish business initiative has grabbed the attention of techie heavy-weights Google, eBay and Skype enough for them to contribute funding is news in and of itself. It is refreshing to hear in a Spain where so many entrepreneurs spend more time looking for government favors than trying to innovate. Moreover, it puts the lie to all the silliness circulating among those who want to regulate the telecommunications market even more due to their static vision of the economy, ignoring the enormous capacity for entrepreneurial innovation and creativity. 10 February 2006, Spain Herald
