Improvements
Some of you suggested improvements, and if you visited the site some weeks ago, you would have noticed that some changes has been made since your last visit.
One of the most important changes is a search engine that enables users to find the list and café they are searching for instantly instead of surfing through the site....

ASIA and USA
Since the lists of cafés in USA and Asia have been growing quickly lately, we've decided, as some of you also suggested, to split USA in single states, and Asia in single countries.
This way it's easier for those who want to print the lists to have them in a handy format. The download-time also are reduced because of this.
Some of the comments:
"
Improvements: It was difficult to figure out where to go, and very annoying to get the "sponsor" thing when i clicked on central and south america. it took me a few tries before i figured out how to get to the list i wanted to see. i like the concept, but fund the site hard to roam around. also, if you could print the cafes by region, that would be nice. God luck"
"found what I was looking for.... what else can a person ask??"
"I saw this in the rec.travel.europe newsgroup. It is difficult to navigate thru your site. The ads take away from your message and I could not tell how to proceed several times. When I got to what I was looking for (Italy) I was confused by the differences in the placing in info and there was no explanation in English (not to be insulting about it). Otherwise the idea is a great one and very helpful for consolidating all the places in one web site."
"don't forget the main purpose for your site, it is not obvious for me where to click to search, let say for cafes in particular country"
"some of the colors of type are very hard if not impossible for me to read. It was not that clear how to find the information that I was looking for, but I managed to find the names & address of internet cafes for the UK. "
" site is too 'busy'.
Also much too wide for my screen.
I'm merely trying to find sites in Boston,MA
when I visit there next week.
I need to access my e-mail ."
Thanks for your time everybody - and pleas don't hesitate to be in touch if you want to suggest new improvements.
