Evidently, Starbucks (The third place) wants to also bring together that and the digital space.  You can read their news article on their site here.

Not bad right?  When their customers say we want a simplified wifi offering – on MyStarbucksIdea.com, they listened.  It’s always nice when the company listens to it’s customers.  Well, that’s what Starbucks says anyway.  I’m sure it helps that everyone else around is offering free wifi and they were being left in the dust.  Don’t get me wrong.  People were still buying their coffee and hanging out at the Third Place.

Soon though, the Third Place will be more connected to the Digital Space.  I can’t wait to see what that will look like.
