Valentine’s Day Marks Launch of First Social Network by Cafeppl for

Coffeehouse Lovers

Cafeppl (Cafe People) - social networking for cafe-goers launches today for Valentines. See
somebody at the next table that interests you? No problem, just check into the same 'Cafespot' - a
virtual space for the real-world coffee shop - and connect over coffee to turn that stranger into a
friend. There are always interesting people in coffee shops, but until now, there has not been an easy
and fun way to meet them. With the arrival of Cafeppl, a new era of cafe socializing has started.

Palo Alto, CA, February 14, 2011 --(PR.com)-- From the land of high-flying social networks, comes a
new innovation, and just in time for Valentine's Day.

Cafeppl (Cafe People) is a new site that was created because there are always interesting people hanging
out at coffeehouses and there has really been no way to break through the Iced Lattes easily.

Instead of just checking out the girl with the Caramel Macchiato you have been observing every night for
months, use Cafeppl to ease your way into a conversation. It's all about connecting comfortably with
strangers over coffee.

While engaging in social networking for romance is obvious on Valentine's Day, Cafeppl is also ideal for
business, work and play connections.

Cafeppl founder & CEO, Pete Meehan, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, says: “Unlike Facebook, this is an
open network where you don't have to be a 'friend' to make contact with others.” He expects this will tear
down a wall for people who wish to make new connections for the sake of serendipity and discovery.

An interesting aspect of the site is that you don't have to actually be in a coffee shop to enjoy the
networking. After logging in, check into your favorite coffeehouse - called “Cafespot,” and check out
who's there and decide whether you should visit.

Any coffee shop can become part of the Cafeppl network. By doing so, they can expect significant
changes to their business, including increased length of stay, increased check average and an intriguing
reason to become even more popular and see an increased number of visits to the store by customers per
week.

Cafeppl socializing opens up a world of possibilities for coffee shop owners and their patrons alike. After
all, weren't coffee klatches and coffee shops the original social networks? It was where people met up,
gossiped, connected with others in their community and shared thoughts and ideas. True communities that
connected over coffee.

Cafeppl.com takes it into 2011 with the exciting new social network which is free for both coffee shops
and coffee lovers.
