yep, there are more decent coffee shops in the UK, even so decent independents can be hard to find. There was an interesting blog post about Yelp a while back.

yep, there are more decent coffee shops in the UK, even so decent independents can be hard to find. There was an interesting blog post about Yelp a while back. He talked about how Starbucks and Yelp were trying to solve the same problem in different ways. Yelp's solution was to help you find something like your favourite coffee shops when away from home. Starbucks to build the same thing everywhere. :) I'm not sure I buy it, but it's an interesting way of thinking about it.
