Internet access is everywhere, so this is pretty easy to take care of. Membership at the local library will give you some time of free Internet access. If you have the money to patronize the business, many coffee shops and delis will have one or two computers for their customers to use.

If you can afford it, a laptop computer with WiFi support will allow you to get free internet at many chain stores, public libraries, etc. Purchasing a high gain directional wireless antenna can make it easier to acquire signals of Wi-Fi intended for public use.

The ultimate solution is a laptop with a satellite modem, enabling you to connect from anywhere in the world. However, this can cost some money, particularly with an ISP to deal with.

There are also some cellular Internet options that are increasingly cheap and fast.
