FORMERLY HOMELESS PEOPLE WORK TO WIRE THEIR NEW DIGS
[SOURCE: San Francisco Chronicle, AUTHOR: Heather Knight]
After all, living the high-tech life takes money, and the 80 residents of the single-room-occupancy hotel in the Civic Center neighborhood don't have much of it. But they do have gumption -- and hope to see their dreams come to fruition after Tuesday night when they hold a benefit at a swanky restaurant next door. They hope to raise $2,000 and envision being able to check e-mail whenever they want, reconnect with family over the Internet, peruse job Web sites with ease, join networking and friendship sites, and stay current on the news and entertainment of the day.
