Lemme go and check again ...
Haha, http://ticketstoplocator.tfl.gov.uk/LocationLocator/ says that
there are no ticket stops anywhere near where I live (CR7 8JH) or work
(E1 6QL) or near Victoria station (SW1E 5ND). If TfL can't find the
damned things, god help any tourist foolish enough to try to use one.
Yeah - it appears to be broken, go here and try again:
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/maps/oyster-ti....5217056274414

I'm not so familiar with where all the little shops are near work, but
if I put my home postcode into that, it shows a few. They're all in the
wrong places though.

(Google still picks up the website you indicated, but navigating the
"new" TfL website takes you to the link I've supplied)

So I repeat, god help any tourist foolish enough to try to use one.
People find things via google, not by going to the home page of a web
site and clicking on random links until they find what they want.
Especially tourists who probably don't even know that TfL is the company
they want or that it lives at tfl.gov.uk.
