In a time when everything has an app, and when so many people use some form of social media, some would say digital services are their first priority.

A new "charitable innovation experiment" called "Homeless Hotspots" is conducting an experiment involving thirteen homeless participants being used as a 'mobile hotspots'.
Each person was given their own MiFi device and a t-shirt emblazoned with the words, "I am a 4G hotspot." Also included was their name and a code which gives customers access to 4G broadband service. Minutes could be purchased for a donation of the customer's choice, although the recommended price was $2.00 for fifteen minutes of service.
