Smile REVIEW: MizPee.com

I know I will probably get some flamers in here for this application and I know it will be mostly of the male origin and its ok ... The female stackers here will be thankful this application exists and its WEB-BASED, so NO downloading of any kind.


I met the creator of this application, Peter Olfe, at CTIA. Funny, I would have never thought a man would come up with such a GREAT idea (sorry guys, just being honest). He told me when telling some of his friends about it they laughed. I'm telling you, for someone who is both a female and a mother, this application is awesome for those day trips away from home and familiar places!

Right now, MizPee is available for 16 states in the US, the Ontario/Toronto area and even 5 cities in Europe. Within the 16 states, all of the greater metropolitan areas are covered (i.e, California has Los Angeles, SF, Sacramento, San Diego, Oakland and San Jose).

I chose San Francisco, since I know the streets (and I am secretly sitting at my desk with a very clean bathroom directly behind me )

Here, I chose the cross streets of Haight and Ashbury


You can see the ratings are rolls of toilet paper. I believe they can go up to five rolls :D


I selected the Pay Toilet on Market St. and next comes the map.


I typed in Potrero and 16th and the next screen asked me to clarify. Very cool.


And for while you are waiting ...


You can actually go in and edit entries based on location, hours of operation, pay required, etc. I can't wait to use this app in the city. I know, its kind of tongue and cheek, but I love it and its just one of those apps that no one ever thinks of, until now.

Check out www.MizPee.com on your blackberry browser.

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~ I can't knock it, even being male there are just some places you can't go, especially in a city.

As a male (and I speak only for myself, not the entire gender), while I'm surprised not only that someone would come up with an application like this, or that it would be popular, I'm more surprised that there is a source of information on where "the Potty" is available in public!

We truly live in the "Information Age".

Oh my goodness. That is awesome. I remember family vacations. We would pull off to the side of the road or while driving we would use empty soda bottles. Haha. This is awesome though. ~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

Thanks Cherri, being both a female and mom, this will come in very useful. Especially since two of my girls are old enough to be on the traveling soccer team this year..

(and FYI...I grew up in the country, so men arent the only ones to find bushes to pee behind )

Yes, that is a great surprise especially considering that the WWW, HTML, e-mail, fiber networks and mobile devices were developed mostly by males. Sorry, gal, just being honest. Way to ruin a great post.

I think what she meant was this type of software would be likely to be designed by a woman because of the "nature" of the software
and yeah... Way to ruin a great review.

As a guy who's witch doctor has given him a diuretic for HBP, having this when I'm out and about will be great!

Honesty is the fact that *most* MEN don't care where they pee. You seem to be the only one who took that comment so seriously. You should try to find your sense of humor. I think you've mispaced it.
