Coffee Zone now a Facebook Place?

We Twitter... and we blog here. And now we have "claimed" Yanis Coffee Zone as a Facebook Place. We think. The creepy old guy in the back who handles this stuff isn't sure but he's working on it. If you do the FB Places thing, check-in when you're here so you friends will know and be so envious they sneak away from the office to come join you.

The Management

We're back. We think.

If you missed our updates on Twitter, you're probably wondering where we went. The guys who host this site (Posterous) got slammed (twice!) with a "denial of service" attack. This is like a competing coffee shop loading up buses with hundreds of vagrants and dropping them off at the Coffee Zone. The place gets so crowded the regular customers can't get in so you have to close the shop until you get rid of the vagrants.

If we go away again, we'll update on Twitter. If that's not down.

Anthropology of Coffee

The blog  Anthropology in Practice has a three-part series on our favorite drink. The first part looks at how coffee became a necessary part of our morning existence. The second delves into the history of the coffee bean in human culture. And the third examines the social role of coffee in creating a culture of productivity.
