Thanks to Nuthatch’s suggestion, the Starbucks Challenge has been frappred. City Hippy and I, however, are too overwhelmed at the moment to input the 130+ locations onto the map by our lonely selves.
So — If you’ve taken the challenge, please frappr yourself. Make your mark here, with deets as to your fair trade success or non-success in the “Shoutout” section.
BTW — Radical Congruency’s working on a map on Geektronica.com that’ll automatically pull the info from del.icio.us. If any challenge-friendly techies out there know how we can make this happen, let me know, and I’ll let RC know.

No chance to automate that - too many different formats people used to classify their store. It would be nice if we either had a zipxxxxx tag, or a store id tag - then you could do it. (Easiest with the ZIP tag, since that’s all frappr is taking. (What’s up with that? No street names?))
If the challenge wasn’t close to being done, I’d help you out - but my calendar next week is a bit full. Ah, maybe we’ll have a second round, after SBUX promised to change for the better.
