Happy Hour Anyone?

It's Friday, another grueling week of piloting your cube has ended. You and the rest of the water cooler kids are counting the minutes until your boss heads to the club house for her early afternoon sales meeting/golf-a-thon. Then, happy hour is officially in effect. The trouble is that the tribe can't break the habit of going to the same old watering hole since no one can remember life before Schlitz night at Bob's Country Bunker.

That scenario hit a little too close to home? Yeah, it did for us, too. Fortunately three dudes from Portland have banded together to create Unthirsty.com, a mashup of happy hour information and Google Maps.

Unthirsty.com relies on locals and establishment owners to update happy hour information in the database. Visitors to the site can display happy hours close to their current location and filter the results on stuff like food and drink specials, free WiFi and patio seating.

The event listing is growing despite the site still being in its infancy. Oregonians and New Yorkers have been the most active having added 150+ afternoon boozing events thus far. Houston has three as of this writing, but we know you've already added a couple since you've been reading. Houstonist's rehydration and relaxation depends on it.
