nice.
outta interest, why starbucks?
would of been much nicer to showcase independant coffee shops than a rather large (and bland) corporation.

People don't even link their own stuff in the PVN when it is in regard to them linking in the PBS?!
Links people!
PVN discussion about PBS links should always start with the link, haha.
I'm not sifting thru to find it.

I really dig the site and the idea but I also agree that it would be cool to see more independant coffee shops.
nice work.

whoa...
yikes.ok..number one, the site is more than it seems...its main reason for being is to test something called 'spatial databox' that we created..
its a superfast engine that can serve up really large amounts of certain kinds of data, faster than anythig on the planet..the idea was to put it through it's paces by cataloging something online via a map...
but there has to be a lot of data points for it to be worthwhile,
hence us using starbucks...seemed like a good idea...
no, it's not a blog...but a lot of blogs have linked to us...
we'd totally love to do something similar for indy coffee houses, the trouble is getting mapping coordinates for them all...
anyhow, i wasn't looking to start some kind of flame war here...
just occured to me that some of you folks might dig it.hope i wasn't wrong..
i have been hanging out here for about 6 or 7 years..thought it would be cool to show something i was working on..
