Website of the Day: Mappy Hour

Last week, PartySugar and I decided we needed a little after work brew. After coming up empty handed with ideas, I suggested we check out Mappy Hour, a great site to help you locate happy hour hotspots in your city. Sure enough, Mappy Hour provided us with many options. All you have to do is type in your city, state or zipcode and let Mappy Hour do the rest. The site will instantly generate fifty of the closest happy hour locations which are conveniently shown on a Google map. Just click anywhere on the map to draw more beer glasses or click on the glass to see the name of the pub or bar. PartySugar and I were having so much fun with the site, that we almost missed out on all the happy hour action!
