Hey HN,<p>I built caffeinator <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.caffeinator.co&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.caffeinator.co&#x2F;</a> as a side project around finding&#x2F;discovering new coffee shops as a fun way to explore my neighborhood and go for a walk.<p>We send a text at your desired frequency (daily to weekly) with a coffee shop near you. Honestly, there&#x27;s nothing different here then going to to google maps&#x2F;yelp, searching for a cafe, then discovering it that way, I&#x27;m just lazy and I felt like there were too many choices.<p>It&#x27;s definitely in an early stage, but would love any feedback. Surprisingly, someone picked it up on Nextdoor and wrote an article <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;missionlocal.org&#x2F;2020&#x2F;01&#x2F;caffeinator&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;missionlocal.org&#x2F;2020&#x2F;01&#x2F;caffeinator&#x2F;</a><p>Would love your feedback&#x2F;suggestions

Great idea! What source do you use to identify coffee shops? Yelp?

Fun idea! FYI, the top text is cropped on mobile (iOS, Safari).
