Thinking and Researching

  The dangers of Wi-FI! Interesting article on the potential dangers of Wi-Fi in yesterday's Independent on Sunday which may have implications for us as we work in a Wi-Fi building, but is pointing out that we should take care when moving to blanket adoption because of unknown impact on health and well-being. It was something that also came up on Radio 4's Today programme this morning, so obviously a current hot topic!

24/4/07 The Guardian G2 has a little comment sidebar on this issue today: no one knows the effect, little research, but run at relatively low power levels i.e. "a person sitting within a Wi-Fi hot spot for a whole year receives the same dose of radiowaves as a person using a mobile phone for 20 minutes."
