Abstract: | The third week of March is no time for an avid basketball fan to find himself stuck in London. While the Brits were busy celebrating their rugby team's capture of something called the Five Nations Championship, I desperately needed a fix of the drama and excitement of the big dance -- The NCAA college hoop championships. So I ventured out into the streets in search of public Internet access. Luckily, I happened upon the Spider Cafe, complete with five donated Silicon Graphics terminals and two appropriately configured PCs. |
