a resource for the ages

Sister Mary MartiniThe internet is alive with resources; indeed, it is riddled with them. It’s positively writhing with ripe and ready resources.

Now, we don’t know how you live your life, but if you’re anything like we are, you look upon most of these resources as, quite frankly, irrelevant crap. Amazon? Don’t you need money for that? Paypal? You need a credit card for that. Travelocity? Ah, to own a passport…what’s that like?

But at last, the internet has finally put out for us here at the ol’ raincoaster blog!

Buy Your Friend a Drink.com via Will Work for Food, who deserves a drink, him/herself.

The concept is you can literally buy your friend a drink via their website, which then sends a text message to your friend telling them they have X number of dollars to spend at a certain bar. Your friend then flashes their phone to the bartender who enters the code that was sent to you, and that’s it. Free drink.

I guess next you’ll be able to take your friend to lunch without actually being there.

  1. Atomized goofiness. Damn…Now I need a drink. Or something…Why do I also feel like buying a book, gambling, and booking a plane ticket to Las Vegas? Who knows…

    I’m going to make a sandwich…

  2. Excellent. You can finance the Tree Octopus reserve out of the profits.

    Also, I need to put this in a sidebar widget: much more directly useful than a bloody Paypal button!
