McDonald's Puts Internet On The Menu
McDonald's customers will soon be able to plug in to the internet while tucking into a burger and fries.
The fast food giant is to make free wi-fi available in 1,200 of its UK restaurants by the end of the year.
Customers will be able to access the net via their laptops, mobile phones and games consoles.
Some other food chains already provide wi-fi access but charge users a fee.
McDonald's Restaurants chief executive Steve Easterbrook said: "The launch of free wi-fi in our restaurants in the UK is an exciting move.
"We believe it will further enhance our customers' experience when they visit us."
:: Telecoms giant BT has announced plans to allow Total Broadband customers to share their connections for no extra charge.
