NIMBY (No Intoxicated Messaging By You)

What is this all about?

NIMBY helps you avoid those statements you might make when you are not of sound mind.

Imagine you’re out with friends when you get the urge to message your ex or that boss who annoyed you today. NIMBY, which stands for No Intoxicated Messaging By You, acts as a filter that helps determine whether or not you should send that email message or make that Twitter post.

How does NIMBY work?

After you enter your message within the interface and press the send button you are asked to complete 1 of 3 tests to determine your state of mind. The filter consists of either 3 basic algebra questions with three possible answers, a simple word search, or a maze where you guide a mouse towards a block of cheese within a limit of 1 minute. So while each task is fairly simple, an intoxicated person with a 1 minute time limit would find them quite challenging. If you fail to complete the task you should reconsider sending that email or Tweet.

Once you enter your message and pass the test you are given the option of posting your message as a Tweet or an email. If you choose email, the native email will open allowing you to send your email. If you choose to post to Twitter your message will automatically post.

Download NIMBY now for that next night out and prevent those awkward mornings. = )
