My number 1 search when I&#x27;m in a new city is good coffee shops to work from with solid Wi-Fi and plugs.<p>I know there&#x27;s a few sites that exist that help with this but my problem was making it easy to see while I was on the go. Oftentimes, I would just have my phone and needed to find the closest place around me.<p>So what I did with this project is connect each city to a Foursquare list that can be saved on your phone and seen when you open Foursquare&#x27;s app.<p>If you don&#x27;t have Foursquare, I added a Google Map that uses your location data to spot what&#x27;s closest to you.<p>We made lists for 10 major cities in North America and London in the UK. 100 coffee shops total with Wi-Fi passwords for most and plug locations.<p>The goal was to find enough coffee shops so you could move from coffee shop to coffee shop on foot.<p>Hope this helps if you&#x27;re traveling and looking to get some work done.

Turn it into app which would update wifi passwords as well.<p>Or someone already did that :-) <a href="http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/global-wifi-hotspot-database-has-100-million-entries.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.techsupportalert.com&#x2F;content&#x2F;global-wifi-hotspot-...</a>
