We like to keep tabs on people that San Fransisco has stolen from us from time to time and make sure they’re being treated properly. I had “heard” on Twitter that the Village Voice had launched an app yesterday called ”Happy Hours” that geo-locates the nearest booze discounts. Ok pretty cool, but what really caught my eye was Alexia Tsotsis post in the SF Weekly about the app.
It seems Village Voice, which the SF Weekly and LA Weekly fall under, left some interesting comments on the TechCrunch article announcing the app which Alexia included in her post:
That’s right, they are offering to buy the first round of drinks for anyone that can show either Alexia or Bill that they have the app on their phone. Great news for you freaks that don’t have an iPhone yet, the app is available on the Android and on the mobile web.
Here’s a handy picture of Bill Jensen and Alexia Tsotsis to help you get acquainted with who they are. Take a good look so you’ll be sure to spot them at SXSWi and get your free drink on.

Now if you excuse me I have some downloading to do. I may not be able to drink right now, but eventually that day will return and I want to be ready.
