I'm proud to announce my latest research project, Project Beekeeper.
In this project I will be creating a mobile "hotspot" and taking it to public locations, keeping track of how many people connect at each location over a period of time.
I won't be scanning them when they connect, simply recording their system/phone name and MAC address, and collecting statistics.
I'll be using a rooted HTC T-Mobile G1 running Android 1.6, which is no longer connected to a wireless carrier.
This will all be made possible by Barnacle Wifi Tether, a great piece of software which is available on Google Play.
