Such a plan kind of reminds me of the time when i first got an ATM
card, and the bank that issued it gave me a 'little' book that was
actually quite thin, that listed all the ATM machines in the whole
damn country...!!!
Even now, with all the fast food restaurants and local bznz
comunities, downtown areas, libraries and many buses in my town, that
have wifi... i don't really think that you need to look up a hot spot,
you just have to open your lap top and see if you get a signal.
i also think that there are ??? antenna dealies that you can stick on
your computer; much like the ones you used to be able to stick on your
cell phone, to get a signal when you're off in the boondoggles...???
The time has already passed for such schemes.

A Google search will inform you that there are many such directories
on the web. People choose where to have lunch in strange cities
based on whether there will be WiFi.
