I know Panera WiFi is managed by ICOA, but do you know who manages the WiFi at Chili's? Is it free or fee?</p> <p>It'll be interesting to see who ends up taking care of the WiFi at Dunkin Donuts, OfficeMax and Staples who all have announced plans to include cafe-esque seating and WiFi in new stores. OfficeMax is actually supposed to roll out 70 of these stores already in 2006. Maybe they'll make their announcements in 2007 as the newly designed stores' rollout gains some momentum. It looks like most of these places are going for free WiFi. How long can Starbucks and McDonalds hold on to their fees in such an atmosphere?</p> You mention chili’s and Panera locations.

So I mapped and tagged some places mentioned here with a tag <a href="http://www.tagzania.com/tag/newofficespace" rel="nofollow">New Office Space</a>. I invite anyone to do the same. Like del.icio.us, for places, tags aggregate etc etc… For instance, these ones just <a href="http://www.tagzania.com/user/neskafe/sanfrancisco newofficespace" rel="nofollow">In San Francisco</a>.
