Wireless technologies have been embraced by businesses and consumers alike due to their convenience and usefulness; they provide a way for people to be connected to the Internet and to each other regardless of their physical location. Wireless technology enables communication and collaboration across borders or other physical boundaries, providing efficiencies flexibility that can ultimately increase productivity. As users become increasingly dependent on the functionality accorded them via wireless communication, technologies that improve and enhance their experiences become more important. The spirit of the web is exemplified by the open innovation that it was founded upon: the sharing of information and technology for the greater good.
