WeFi goes Android

WeFi, the company behind the community-based global Wi-Fi network, announced the launch of a version of its free software for the Android platform, offering users automatic access to the best WiFi connection available.

Users can download the free WeFi application either directly from the WeFi website or by searching for WeFi in Android Market — it’s listed under “Applications / Communication” category. Then you can easily connect to any of a number of available WeFi hotspots. The software automatically connects you to the best connection available, and if the connection is lost, WeFi will reconnect to another available open Wi-Fi hotspot.

For the record, there are more than 21 million access points available in WeFi’s network and that number keeps growing constantly.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
