For those of you not in the know, Starbucks is offering free wifi in all of their US and Canadian stores starting today. That means, if you used your Starbucks Card more than five times and registered online, you can spend 3 dollars on a drink and loiter in their store all day with free refills and free Hulu!
Of course, that doesn't mean people are going to instantly flee from Libe Cafe down to College Ave., but it does put on the pressure on other "hang out spots" to offer similar services.
Speaking of hanging out, summer is half way through and the movies have proven to be quite boring this year. With the exception of "Toy Story 3", I haven't seen anything worth watching. On Thursday, I caught a preview of "Twilight: Eclipse" - very emo, audience filled with teenage girls. If I'm willing to pay 22 bucks to see Taylor Lautner shirtless, it just goes to show how boring the cinema has been.
