Internet cafe (original) (raw)

An Internet cafe or cybercafe is a place where one can use a computer with internet access for a fee, often per hour or minute; sometimes one can have unmetered access with a pass for a day or month, etc. It may or may not serve as a café also; in South Korea they are called PC bang. Nowadays there are also Wifi-cafes, where a person can connect their notebook or PDA using the cafe's wireless access to the Internet.

They are located world-wide, and most people use them when travelling to access their email account, and keep in touch with family and friends.

The EasyInternetcaf� chain discontinued its CD burning services because it was held responsible for copyright violations by clients [1].

There are also internet access points in public places like airport halls, sometimes just for brief use while standing.
