Find Free Wi-Fi With Your Clothes

Posted by Chad Criswell Oct 6, 2007

Free Wi-Fi is becoming more and more common, but unless you know that a particular location has an open access point finding out often meant watching for posted signs or sneakily carrying around a handheld Wi-Fi finder to sniff out the best spots near you. If however you are proud of your skullduggery, you can now broadcast to everyone the fact that you are a true Wi-Fi geek by becoming a walking (and flashing) Wi-Fi billboard.

ThinkGeek.com now sells a t-shirt that comes complete with a light up display on the chest that visually shows you and everyone else when there is an active Wi-Fi connection in the neighborhood. The stronger the signal the more lights light up. Here are the specs for this truly geeky shirt.

• Glowing animated shirt dynamically displays the current wi-fi signal strength.
• Shows signal strength for 802.11b or 802.11g
• Runs for hours off three AAA Batteries (not included)

Sadly the shirt is currently out of stock, but when it is available it sells for $30.
