WebWord Comment -- The McDonald's Wireless web site is so nasty! Graphics used for text, mystery meat navigation, bizarre use of fonts, and more.

Frierless technology at McDonalds.

I am in shock and awe of McDonalds' sense of design.

The idea of accessing the "fast" internet independant of location is a nice idea and certainly where we are heading. Just have to improve the battery life of the laptops :)

The site is so - so . I am intrigued by the idea of using the scratch-off cards to provide time-limited access to their service. Is this an economical and easy to use model that other service providers could adopt? It's sort of like buying long distance phone charge cards. Maybe this method can break through some of the barriers to paid WiFi access. I'd rather do this than have accounts with multiple providers for when I'm going through airports and so on.

I didn't see the mystery meat navigation on the first page. Did it change, or did I miss something?

This looks like a first stab at something so they can test it in a small market. Perhaps it will be updated?
