Need a Cup? Check A Brooklyn Coffee Map

These Brooklyn coffee maps, which are simply zoomed in versions of NYC coffee maps came to our attention via the Google Maps Mania blog. The top one--which shows independent coffee places--comes from cupofnyc's New York City coffee map. The bottom one shows the location of Starbucks (the paucity of which in certain parts of Brooklyn with either lead one to rejoice or to wonder when more will come, depending on one's orientation on this hot button issue). It comes from the findbyclick coffee map (no way to link to the NYC map directly. You have to type in New York in the search bar). We're pretty sure the "indie" coffee map is missing some spots, but the Starbucks map looks fairly complete. You can also search the "indie" map by neighborhood.
