Internet buses sound cool. It would definitely be a good use of time.

I drive to school every day, but if our school buses had that, I would definitely wake up twenty minutes earlier to ride the bus. Legit.

I don't like the bus so probably not, but if I was taking the bus that would definetaly be my top pick.

that seems like a weird way for a school district to spend their money..really unnecessary but cool.

That means you have to carry your laptop with you all day. Plus, if you drive to school, couldn't you just use all the time you save to do your work at home?

I think this is such a good idea minus the cost. Especially for students who have long bus rides, this would enable them to use all that time productively. I would definately ride the internet bus.

While I would personally enjoy having a wifi bus I think this is a bad idea overall. It only makes the bus quieter and more behaved because everyone is absorbed in the internet. It's ridiculous that they think it would be like a study hall. Everyone is just going to be on facebook or playing videogames. While I love the internet and, to be honest, I spend way too much of my time there, it just wouldn't be good for the students. In a modern student's life, the bus ride may be the biggest chance they get to socialize face to face with their friends. Giving the students wifi will cause them all to retreat into the internet even though they are feet away from each other.
