  • What A Relief

    What do all of these have in common?  They're where I was when I was about 20 seconds from crapping my pants and couldn't find a public bathroom.  Everything turned out okay, but at the time it would've been nice to have something like the Have2P app for the iPhone.

    Have2P does all the following (ripped from their website):
    • Automatically detects your current location to find restrooms in the local area
    • Scan helpful tips noted by others, like whether the restroom is for patrons only, if it has a changing table, and how clean it is
    • An urgency detector senses when you (and the phone) are shaking and starts a fresh search for nearby restrooms
    • Use restroom ratings for when you actually have a choice
    • See restrooms on a map
    • Add new restrooms to share with others
    • Find other places nearby with expanded search capabilities
    • Avoid businesses that have been flagged for having no public restrooms – saving you precious time
    If you have as many close calls as I do, this app is pretty much a must-have.  I guess the next step is to actually get an iPhone...

    Ever find yourself having to really use the bathroom but there weren't public restrooms around? Where'd you end up going?
