(also known as) The Coffee Shop.
Gone are the days when cafes provided refuge from everyday responsibility in exchange for competitive chess games, weekend gossip, obnoxious children, and not-so-obvious people-watching. Today, leisurely coffee refills are replaced by constant tapping of fingertips atop delicate keys as both eyes remain glued to the latest blog/paper/email/report. While perhaps lacking the romance of, say, the incessant reworking of a hand-writtem heart-felt love letter or, better yet, shameless reruns of MSCL as graduate school papers prevail unwritten, the world is being changed one convert at a time, as these blogs inspire volunteerism, these papers expose truths, these emails forge partnerships, and these reports explore the unknown. Enjoy!
