To serve its growing number of iPhone customers on New Year’s Eve, wireless giant AT&T set to expand its WiFi hotzones. It has recently added New York City’s Time Square in the list for its customers who will hit the place on December 31st and New Year to celebrate. Besides, it has also chosen NYC’s Rockefeller Center and St. Patrick’s Cathedral along with San Francisco’s popular Embarcadero Center in the prospective WiFi hotspot list.

Some already existing hotspots which are a part of AT&T’s pilot project include downtown Charlotte, N.C., and Chicago’s Wrigleyville with NYC Times Square being the third one.

As the popularity of WiFi increases, the company is gaining a huge customer base. This pilot project has earned it the customer base of over 350,000 connections across only these three hotspots. In a Q3 report, AT&T reported 106.9 million WiFi connections on its network.

“AT&T Wi-Fi will be available across a wider area for Manhattan residents, visitors and New Year’s Eve revelers during the busy holiday season and beyond. Plus, San Francisco residents are expected to soon be able to enjoy a WiFi hotzone in the Embarcadero Center area as they shop, dine and work,” said Angie Wiskocil, senior vice president of AT&T WiFi Services.

Along with these developments, AT&T is also making a documentary on texting while driving. It is an 11-minute documentary named “The Last Text” and will reach consumers before New Year’s Eve. It speaks about the hazards of texting while driving with the help of storytelling and eye-witness testimony. It is a part of AT&T’s “It Can Wait” TV, print, and online campaign as well as includes a Facebook app where friends can take a pledge on not to text while driving.
