Wefi is a service from an Israeli company that tracks free wifi and it shows up on their app. Sightings are posted by users and TOP submitters will be having their IDs shown on the main software. Its a cool way to look for unlocked wifi services and lets hope more people outside US use this to promote internet. Kudos to wefi – its a cool way to network via free wifi.
Im not sure if it works outside USA but I am currently download the app from Wefi.com
WeFi, makes your life easier because it’s smart. It talks to a centralized server and uses the power of the collective for the benefit of the individual. My co-founder, Shimon likes to say that he came upon the idea watching the Borg on Star Trek. You do remember the cube that floated in space terrorizing entire planets. Why was the Borg so strong? Because they utilized the power of the collective. We do the same by combining every single Wi-Fi sighting and experience, thereby creating a virtual network out of individual users and managed access points.
But there’s more. WeFi allows you to see where other users are located. Is your friend 2 miles away? Has he visited this hotspot in the past? Is there someone else cool nearby? You’ll know all that with WeFi. We have also added a Flickr mash-up, so you can see and upload geo-tagged photos related to a spot. Obviously we will rely on everyone’s feedback to decide what else to add and mash-up: restaurant reviews, twitter or anything else.
