==WiFi and Energy==
Compared to the european cities, Moscow is a far easier city to find open wi-fi signal. For an easy solution, many metro lines have public open wifi inside the trains (but not in the plataforms).
If you need also a power plug to charge your cellphone or computer, there are at least two good options:
1) "Gorky Park" in the center (stations "Park Kultury" or "Oktyabrskaya"), coming from the central door and passing the big fountains, they have an area with wooden cubes and power plugs on it; if not avaliable, there are other few plugs around the park. All the park is also covered by open wifi (the connection lasts for 30 minutes but you can renew it indefinitely just refreshing the page).
2) State Library (Biblioteca imeni Lenina) (in the center, homonymus metro station). It works on week days from 9 to 20 and on Saturdays from 9 to 19. There are big, comfortable study rooms inside it where you can plug your computer. To enter on it you need either a one-way card (free) or a 5 years subscription (which costs you 100 rbl. -- as of Oct 2014 -- for making the card with your name, photo etc). For making both, you need only your passport. However, to have a password to access the library's WiFi you will need the 5 years subscription.
3) University buildings are usually good places for it but not in Russia; in general you cannot enter in the buildings unless you are a student or a functionary of it.
