Students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology can look online to see where their compadres are logging onto the campus’s wireless network at any given time, day or night.
MIT provides an online map depicting how many students are logged onto the network and their precise locations on the Cambridge, Mass., campus. It can even identify who a particular student is, if that person wishes to make that information public. Students can use the information to avoid the overcrowded cafe or, if interested, track the migratory habits of other students. (San Jose Mercury News)
