In an article titled Maximum Starbucks Density, Jason Kottke points to a blog entry by Justin Blanton, who used the Starbucks locator web page
and discovered that there are 43 Starbucks branches within a 5-mile
radius of his apartment. He challenged readers to beat that. I can, with 51 branches. The record — a whopping 170 Starbucks — belongs to an area “around Broadway in NYC”.
While looking at some of the locations on the map of the Starbucks near
my house, I got the urge to annotate the map (classifying things
qualifies as a recreational activity in the nerd world). Here’s what I
put together — click the map below for a larger version:

YEAH! I F-ing RULE!
Opening it up to 10 miles gets me 4... I get to 40 with a 50 mile search...
That's ok, starbucks... move along.. nothing to see here...
Yep, I also get 51 Starbucks, I think I live less than 5 miles from you because I get mostly the same ones, just in a different order (the closest to my apartment first).
It's refreshing to see someone post their street address in their blog. It takes a lot of the effort out of stalking.

I actually was thinking the same thing. I had a description of my building in a couple of posts, but I later deleted it. But if you really want to find me, you can figure it out from some of my entries. This is way too revealing, though.
My resume's been online for years, and th eonly people who have ever stalked me were Human Resources departments and headhunters (er, I mean "Professional Job Placement Specialists").
Within 50 miles of my home...NONE! I went to the largest town in the area (about 60 miles away) and did a 50 mile search from it. Also none.
Although I do know the Barnes and Noble there serves Starbucks coffee. Gee, all of a sudden I feel like a real hick.
