If your love for the Starbucks coffee chain knows no bounds, check out the latest juicy caffeinated tidbits at the Starbucks Gossip blog.
The site offers news that the company plans to donate money to clean-water efforts in third-world countries and that Louisiana State University students are protesting putting a Starbucks in the campus library.
