Free WiFi On Main Street Hardy – Anyone?
(Originally Published Jun 16, 2010) With the talk from City Hall about bringing WiFi to Dr. Thompson Park we thought we would repost our original story about Free Wifi.
Why even offer Free WiFi (muniwireless) along Main Street in Hardy Arkansas? The only 
thing that retains value is what the local community is willing to invest in terms of their interest and content. If local businesses, organizations, civic groups and schools in the local community, in short, are willing to create local content for the local network, post local ads, if they see the service as part of the fabric of the community. That is part of the idea of Free muniwirelessWiFi, because our idea – would first point all users to the Main Street Hardy Online Resource website. This then helps promote not only the town but the local merchants and community as well. Is this self serving? Not really, its self promoting of our town ! Besides, if we don’t do it, no one else will.
If they won’t come to us, we’ll go to them
It seems some of the local business owners and associates figured out a way to ensure some extra business in this sometimes off season for shopping along the Main Street in Hardy.
What little trick is this you may ask? Well it seems that sometimes when the customers don’t seem to be coming to you, then it’s time to go to them. That is exactly what store owner Marc H., of the Ozark Classic Crafts Mall two associates Hal M. & Tracy M. representing, Etch Graphics and last but not least Page N., of For Mother Earth #2 did.
