Drinking and the Internet
Hello! Today I’m going to take part in my first web 2.0 pub crawl. To be fair, it’s actually my first ever pub crawl, but being the geek I am I’m trying to incorporate as much technology into it as I can. The route itself has been traced out using Google Maps:
And I’ll also be using a brightkite.com iPhone app which is linked to my Twitter feed to give real time updates on how far along we’ve got - possibly with comment on the pubs we’re in but I’m assuming that as I get progressively more drunk the comments will degenerate into mindless swearing and eventually become unintelligible. So I’ll probably just reflect on how well that went during tomorrow afternoons hangover.
To make an educated guess, initially I’d go with “very fucking badly” but in amongst the dross some comedy gold may turn up so it’s worth trying it at least.
So heres to technology and alcohol. Two of mankinds greatest achievements. By the end of today I’ll know how well they work together, and I’ll also have a kebab.
Cheers!
