    HotSpotHaven.com - WiFi Anywhere in World

    Not afraid to be ambitious, HotSpot Haven wants to help you find WiFi anywhere in the world. It is a searchable database of wireless locations where you enter a city or zip code, the service provider name, and/or enter that you want a free wireless network spot.

    Hopefully, the site will then find you a location meeting your preferences. They also encourage you to go to the location and write a review so people know whether they should go. Unfortunately, I did not have great success with some of the international cities I entered, and even inputting a zip code in San Diego came up with zero search results. When I then just entered the entire city of San Diego, I did get results, but the results were extremely limited despite my personal knowledge of dozens and dozens of locations.

    Hotspothaven.com In their own words

    "Due to the growing demand of mobile professionals worldwide and the increasing popularity of Wi-Fi Hotspots, there is a strong need for a fast and accurate wireless database both online and offline. The HotSpot Haven was founded with the hope of providing those seeking to 'unwire' with a library of local wireless businesses that offer either free or fee based wireless internet services.

    If you still don't know what Wi-Fi is or what the technology can offer for your home and business, just look around at a local Wireless Cafe and see if you notice a few people surfing the web on their laptops. Welcome to Wi-Fi."

    Why Hotspothaven.com might be a killer

    Any search engine for WiFi is bound to garner interest in this mobile age, and certainly being an international search engine is a great idea with great potential.

    Some questions about Hotspothaven.com

    They seem to have bit off more than they can chew here, as the number of sites listed is quite limited for some of the largest cities in the world -- even those in the United States. Do they have staff actively seeking wifi locations or are they relying on user input? If they are just relying on user input, I suggest seeking funding to get their own researchers and become a truly notable and professional site...or just wait for another professional site to trounce them.
