Now this is absolutely bright . TheReg is report of a fresh avail from the makers of the Good Pub Guide , a directory of drinking establishments in the UK . For just 50 pence ( about 88 cents ) you may text the serving with the message “ GOODPUB , ” and it will immediately respond with the location of the cheeseparing cake . And if you ’ve bugger off a nice WAP - capable display , you may even get a map . The service uses the iTAGG system that triangulates your location down to the closest cell , so while it might not be 100 % precise it ’ll get you pretty unaired .
But that ’s not even the sound part . If you grow tired of the pub you ’re at , another text sent to the service within two minute with the subject matter “ NEXT ” will give you the details of the next conclusion establishment . TheReg ’s Lester Haines call it “ the SMS pubcrawl . ”
I guess this means every UK phone from here - on can be described as “ dry pint - sized . ”
Gasping for a pint ? Text GOODPUB[TheRegister ]
