For busy workaholics , who get bored of working at home or in the office , cafes with wi-fi hotspots  are a paradise
for them . They just need to bring their laptops to their favorite cafes for a change of scene .
With a comfortable cafe atmosphere and the beverages and snacks on offer , wi-fi hotspots can attract not only professionals but also university or high school students as many of them also have notebooks .But they come for different purposes .
Dimas, an artist, said he opted to work in his favorite cafe if he had to concentrate on a project that needed a fast internet connection . The combination of the relaxed atmosphere and free internet access , he said , encouraged him to stay at the cafe for hours . " Sometimes I meet my clients here ," Dimas said .
Anita Jolanda ,from Bandung , said that she frequented shoping malls that provided  free wi-fi hotspot after work .She said she checked her email or chatted online with her relatives or friends who lived in other cities .
As an information system officer , she said she could work anywhere with an internet connection .
While professionals usually come to the cafes alone to work , students come in groups . Ratna Putri Delia , a student of the university of indonesia , said she enjoyed hanging out with her friends at cybercafes . " We usually chat, exchange photos or share our facebook profiles  ," she said .
Ratna said she and her friends could spend the whole evening at cafe until it closed , especially if she was hanging out with old high school friends .
Wow ! , wi-fi cafes have really changed the working habits and lifestyle of some indonesians .
