cos has an interesting post about a new use of wireless technology for instant communications with strangers. It's basically a public message board, to which you can post by texting from your cell phone. And by "public" I mean "on display in a well-trafficked area."

He's looking for new venues -- it's apparently a success in at least one of the popular Boston-area coffee shops. As much as I visit local coffee shops I don't know the culture of any of them well enough to know whether this would work particularly well at specific ones. O my caffeinated brethren, do you know of any places he should call? (Non-cafes are great, too!)
