New Yorkers get their own ‘text a drink’ service
Happy hour by SMS, with BuyYourFriendADrink | Webware : Cool Web apps for everyone
If you owe a friend a drink, or just want to be nice, head on over to the BYFAD Web site and fill out the form–you’ll need to have that friend’s cell phone number on hand. You can opt to give them a dollar amount between $5 and $250, and there’s a 99-cent processing fee. Then, your friend receives an e-mail and a text message alerting them of the yummy drinkable gift, along with a promotional code.
Nice! Looks similar to the Corney & Barrow BuyMeADrink service that was talked about way back in September 2006. Anyone in New York gonna give this one a go over the weekend?
Surely this is a straight forward copy of the buymeabeer service.
