  1. Looked away from the @WiGLEnet stats for a minute and the total files parsed count jumped from 7,999,909 to 8,000,156!

    That’s a LOT of files. I appear to have contributed some 20,000 of them since 2004.

  6. Holy cow - just noticed that #ccie4526 has passed 50,000,000 geolocated APs on @WiGLEnet, continuing to dominate the number 2 position on the big board!

    Not bad for nearly 23 years of contributions!

  11. Oooofff that’s a long flight…AMS to MSP. But a phone with a GPS fix doesn’t mind a bit.

    Wigle.net, just a little bit…

  16. One #wigleWiFi phone managed to hold a GPS signal out of AMS! Just passed over the top of Ireland and saw 3 more cell towers detected! Not bad at 6 miles up.

  21. @hisaac fair question, but a clarification first - wardriving isn’t hacking or connecting to someone’s open WiFi networks. It’s simply collecting the RF signal that’s put out there by access points, and in the case of @WiGLEnet, putting those APs on cool maps.

    Now for the why, I’ve been at it 20 1/2 years and it’s still fun.

    First there is an AMAZING community of enthusiasts- builders, coders, techies and non-techies that are always finding new ways to #wardrive, #warbike, #warboat, #warfly, #warboard and more. These are amazing people I’ve only recently had the chance to meet some of in-person, yet we’ve “known” each other for years through shared experiences.

    Second, it’s a great way to explore the world around you. I’ve driven nearly every mile of road in my city, subdivisions and parks and areas I never would have visited without the potential to collect #allTheWifi. And when I travel around the US, I probably explore more than I would otherwise.

    Third, I love the technology and the changes in rigs I’ve used over the past 20 years. Started with an iPaq running Windows CE and an iPod Touch. Now The ESP32 rigs are amazing (see @jhewitt, @lozaning and so many others), the massive ZimaBoard tech folks like @dustinfinn build are even MORE amazing, yet you can wardrive with a $40 Android phone and the WigleWiFi app and be a major contributor! Participation is a level playing field!

    I could go on but hopefully that paints my picture of “why”.

  36. Made it 1,260 miles on the plane with a GPS lock and @WiGLEnet running. Seems to have made the old S7 Edge a bit unhappy…but it recovered the lock and I may make it all the way home!

    Lots of cell towers up here…
