Business Opportunities And Ideas

If You’ve Gotta Go, You’ve Gotta Go!

on August 4th, 2007

mizpeeHave you ever found yourself desperately looking for a public toilet in a new city? I certainly have and sometimes there just isn’t a friendly stranger on hand to ask - but what if you could phone a friend, or at very least text them? Well that’s what a new San Francisco based business does.

MizPee finds the closest, cleanest toilet (it gives you a rating for each toilet) and gives you entertaining reading material once you get there. Since the service is cell phone-based, it’s always with you, when you really gotta go!

At present it’s a US based service but I’m sure the idea would work just as well over here, or anywhere in the world. The revenue seems to be based largely on advertising - sending you relevant local deals, but if you need to “spend a penny” then I’m sure you’d be prepared to pay for it!

    That would go so well in my city, which is severely lacking in toilets around the centre. As if drunk people don’t need incentive enough to piss on walls.
