When You’ve Got To Go, Go To Mizpee.com

Duncan Riley

MizPee is a new service focused on delivering pertinent information regarding the location of nearby restrooms.

Using MizPee is as simple as surfing to mizpee.com via a mobile device browser. Users simply enter their location and MizPee delivers a list of nearby toilets, how far away the toilet is, a rating and whether it requires payment. Further details may include disabled access, whether the restroom includes a diaper-changing station and for those really keen on browsing for the best toilet, user comments as well.

SMS is also supported; users can send a text message to 415-350-2290 with their location and receive details of their nearest loo in return.

I think it’s safe to say this marks the begining of the end for Web 2.0. are people really running out of good ideas?
Duncan Riley

June 27th, 2007 at 7:13 am

Tom
I’m not sure if there is a business model, but I think its a great idea, certainly when I was in NY last year finding a loo was bloody hard, this site would have come in handy.

This is the most retarded startup idea I’ve ever seen on TechCrunch. When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to GO. Who wants to hop on their cell phone and try to do a search when they’ve got a turtle head poking out? Deadpool in 6 months.

Duncan,

This service might be more useful in Europe, but here in the States, you don’t have to pay to go to the restroom. There are fast food places on every corner when you can drain the vein. The only thing bloody hard is the turd that comes out after marinating while you’re waiting for search results.
Aydin Mirzaee

June 27th, 2007 at 7:20 am

version 2.0 will include scheduled bathroom trips that will work with your outlook calender…

The system looks up where you are at what times and regularly gives you a feed of bathroom locations… lol… I actually meant for this to be a joke… but, hmmm… interesting idea anyway…

Whatever happened to asking a real, breathing human being where there might be a nearby “loo”? Sadly, some people believe technology belongs everywhere. I’m not one of them.

If only bandwidth and storage costs would triple or even quadruple, 75% of these nonsense startups would just go away. I’d happily be willing to pay higher cost for my sites because they happen to be REAL businesses. It’s as if 4 out of 5 new sites we see on Techcrunch were thought up by a car of drunk geeks waiting in the drive-thru for Taco Bell. A quick stop at Godaddy and a few dozen hours of coding later…. Bam… we’ve got the next great concept which will undoubtedly get funded for a few million. Only if they are in Cali of course

Duncan,

NYC has a restuarant every 10 feet, all restuarants have bathrooms..it’s not really that hard. If you have time to get out the cell phone and use the site, you don’t have to go bad enough not to be able to find one the old fashioned way.

The problem here is audience. This would have an audience with our mothers, for example, however my mom can barely use a computer, let alone a mobile app.

We have many customers doing interesting things with our SMS API. This is one idea that I must say has never even occurred to me.

I can see it being useful. Not sure how it will be monetized though. Hey MizPee, if you want to charge $.50 each time someone needs to pee, let us know.

I’m working on a website that identifies where people are farting, and can send you an SMS letting you know to stay away from those poor smelling areas. Currently seeking $4.5MM in funding if anyone is intersted.
Come on!

If I launch a new website, it freakin’ BETTER get a writeup on TC if ideas like this are getting press!
Rational Beaver

June 27th, 2007 at 7:36 am

This is hilarious. I seriously considered this same idea about a year ago, even going so far as to create a mock-up homepage and naming it PottyPlanner. I must admit, I hadn’t thought about the mobile component - I was thinking of something that works more like SeatGuru (plan in advance). I think the mobile implementation gives this idea a lot more credence, but I wonder if it will make it harder to monetize. I will enjoy following this site to see if it actually works.

Sidenote: If you think your ideas are original or unique, you’re in for a surprise. Implementation is what matters.

Wondering if they will be coming out with the GPS enabled version. I hate having to type in my location when I really need to go… Just press a button and have the phone lead me there.

This service reminds me of a Seinfeld episode where George asks Jerry to give him any location in the city and he tells him the best bathroom to go to in that area.

JERRY: Alright.. Sixty-fifth and Tenth.

GEORGE: (Scoffs) Are you kidding? Lincoln Center. Alice Tully Hall, the Met. Magnificent facilities!

Actually, it shouldn’t just be the Ms. but also that’s great for those with kids.

Seriously, just like the Seinfeld episode, knowing where the best restroom is important. Although it seems it’s that not important for some of you who seem like slobs, especially #27. You seem like a slob with everything you do.

It would’ve been really nice if they had combined this service with a Pub finding service. That way you close the circle, if you know what I mean. First you help people find a place to drink beer and then you help them find the toilet. Pretty nice, aye!

Ok, not to be mean, because I love TC and get a lot of insight from it, but this isn’t something I would at all be interested in, in any capacity, as an executive in the industry. I think it’s a waste of space on the site, honest.
Stephen

June 27th, 2007 at 8:48 am

I agree with #6 - why a person can’t just ask someone is kind of odd. Maybe a language barrier?

How about this:

Persons who use MizPee can upload photos of the bathrooms they just…”visited” from their mobile phones for future folks to view the condition of the place before they venture forth.

That would be funnier than sh*t.
Len Barchak

June 27th, 2007 at 9:02 am

Many of the comments here about MizPee are huffy and angry. Wouldn’t it be better to just play with the idea–as an intellectual game–to bring out newer and better ideas? (Surely venture capitalists shouldn’t be just as ideological as politicians, right?) As Milton long ago wrote in Areopagitica: an idea may be completely wrong, but it may lead to a really good or true path. In this response cache–for instance–too few of the comments recognize the existence of a potential audience, viz. women, who often care about this much more than most men. Is this same kind of thinking-error made when they conceptualize other genuine high tech products? If so, a better system than cock-sure intuition is needed to plumb the pool of potential customers. Let the intellectual play begin!

lots of people venting here, I saw the demo for mizpee at Startup Camp and last night at SF Beta and thought it was quite cool. Simply put it could be a useful service, especially for tourists and city dwellers out on the town for a little drinkin.

A GPS locater service that answers the question of where you are would be really nice, then its just a simple text or ping to the mobile site and you get the info you need.

if this was 99 mizpee would have announced a $15 million funding round and be planning their ipo next week, but this is 07, someone took an idea, built a simple app and launched.
patricia

June 27th, 2007 at 9:07 am

@ Len, I’m not angry. I’m also a woman and can say that I wouldn’t bother with this service.

Sorry!
Marques

June 27th, 2007 at 9:12 am

Ok, I usually do not jump on the comment wagon here on TC, but this last post pushed me over. The issue is not with TC posting this article, I am great full that TC writes about the good, bad and ugly of web2. My issue is that most of the web 2.0 services that are coming out lately suck! Are we really out of good ideas? Have we push the internet usefulness (in it’s current state) to its limit?

I hope not, I am working on a startup web service (OMG not another web 2.0 site) and I really hope that my service brings value and not just a waste of time to users. There is a lot of objectiveness to what brings value and I can see while some web services may bring value to my life while other do not.

As for Mizpee, it is hard for me to see ANYONE acquiring enough value for the effort needed to use it. Sorry, but come on it is a toilet finder for god’s sake!

Last note, when I do go public with my service, hopefully TC will notice (just wishful thinking).

June 27th, 2007 at 9:21 am

Intellectual curiosity and the suspension of disbelief while pursuing a fertile idea was my point, not the assigning of all women to an on-line loo. It doesn’t really matter what a particular potential audience member can say as put down. What matters is whether there is an audience or customer segment that will support the service. Marketing is never like voting for president. A 51% percent rejection by women, men or whoever does not negate the market for the other 49% percent. The question is how is segment the audience: demographics or lifestyle? Once again, can there be intellectual play about the MizPee idea so that it yields fresh insights? Or just gotcha?

Hi

Mizpee might work if it could be transformed into a Stalls of Honor and Styles of Shame search engine. The plushest places could be registered and the worst conveniences could be listed. A public convenience does not seem to be high on anyone’s agenda because of lack of care by the public. We get what we deserve. A loo does not have to be a commode in a cylindrical aluminium structure, or a hole in the ground protected by timber fencing. A few establishments are equipped with mirrors bordered with beautiful etchings and oceanic wall tiles, mock Sistine Chapel, vaulted ceilings and skylights and cubicles with ornate flocked silk wallpaper, and an automatic flushing system

Honestly, I think that the idea isn’t half bad, especially as they are targetting women, who from my experience, (not being a woman myself), really value cleanliness in the toilets they use. I’m not sure about the execution, (for example, their site still serves up the apache favicon), but it could improve.

This idea has been discussed here: http://www.airbagindustries.co.....lopr_1.php already, and quite a few people think it’s a good idea, and it looks like a competing service may be launching at shittr.com soon.
Oreopinion

June 27th, 2007 at 10:46 am

Maybe the creators of the site merely wanted a solution to their own problem of finding a bathroom. It’s awesome that they went ahead and created a system to meet their needs. I also find it amazing at the attention that this service is receiving. There are tons of sites out there that would give anything to get front-page attention on TC, and yet the guys that focus on bathroom activities are given the spotlight. Now that’s an amazing accomplishment!
Craig

June 27th, 2007 at 10:55 am

While the idea is innovative, I don’t always think innovation and success go hand in hand:). Come on now… Let’s leave our black berry out of our Bathroom decision making abilities. I think I have enough sense to run into any one of the many coffee shops, restaurants, departments stores etc…. to take care of business:)

As for the feedback system on washroom cleanliness, I don’t know about you, but when I have really go, the last thing I am thinking about is how aesthetically pleasing my bathroom experience will be. Any porceline will do!
Al Ramirez

June 27th, 2007 at 10:56 am

Not a company that will change the world but at least its an honest effort if not a somewhat funny one. Nothing like bathroom humor to break up the day.
John B

June 27th, 2007 at 11:02 am

@Craig: True, we should leave our blackberry out of our bathroom decision, however, we should leave our blackberry out of a lot of stuff but choose not to. If people are willing to use their blackberry, (or iPhone, or whatever), to find a bathroom, (we’ll see if that’s the case), then somebody might as well make a few bucks off of it

Yes it’s stupid, but go look at the corporate site: http://www.yojomobile.com/

PeePlace is presumably just a (Piss-poor) attention grabbing demo/prototype to convey the kind of smd/mobile location-based search they’re trying to build. It grabbed attention, now how are they going to be different to everyone else trying to do ad-funding location search?

June 27th, 2007 at 11:12 am

i’m not a TC fanboy like most posters i see, here, but it’s important to occasionally put posts up on TC that might actually be, you know, useful. this might be one of them.

that said, the more difficult problem is finding a way for businesses and local gubments to provide adequate facilities that don’t get trashed. lots of good ideas coming out of europe (night-time rise-out-of-the-ground pee stations for men) - would like to see more, here. so, this website is a step in the right direction.

most TCers are boring teetotallers, and as such are unable to comprehend why a service like this might be important to not just individuals, but to city governments and businesses who have to hire people to wash the piss off their stoops every morning.

that aside, unlike others i think this is a wonderful idea. for Americans in the U.S. maybe less so than for travelers/tourists coming to the states and abroad.

the value of the svc will be realized only if people continue to add to the database of viable options to ‘lighten one’s load.’

Marques

June 27th, 2007 at 11:39 am

Imagine this:
You are walking down a street and it hits you, you need to take a shit!

Your first reaction is not to look for the nearest gas station, fast food joint or starbucks (ignore the fact that there is at least one of them in sight at all times).

Instead you flip open your cell and access the internet. After misspelling mizpee 3 times you finally get to mizpee. You then misspell the nearest intersection 5 times (the increase input error rate is cause by long street names and your body is pissed off b/c it wants to take a shit and you are texting). You then read the reviews of listed bathrooms to insure that they meet your cleanliness standards, why squat if you can sit? So after 5-10 minutes you finally find the nearest and cleanest bathroom, but to your disappointment you have already shitted in your pants and you now need to find the nearest shower.

This sparked the creation of my new web service mizshittedonme.com. A mobile service that locates the closest public shower or bathhouse.
Ericka

June 27th, 2007 at 12:00 pm

This would be good in some cities… but the 7 cities it uses are not any of them. I doubt I’d have a hard time finding a bathroom in NY or LA. Help me find one in Franconia, NH, and I’ll be impressed

I wonder what “great idea” they are developing this system for? I can’t believe this is anything more than a way to develop a system without giving too much info to potential competitors.
James

June 27th, 2007 at 12:33 pm

So - I tried it.

FIVE MINUTES to get an SMS back with the message ‘Visit our website’.

If I need to go that urgently that I need to use my blackberry, I can’t wait FIVE MINUTES for a reply…

Then, they don’t have data for my city.

So - I click ‘Add a toilet’ and they don’t let me add toilets for my city…

@71 (Peter) -

Do you think the people who are “pissing on stoops” are going to take the time to find a restroom on a mobile app? If you’re pissing on stoops, you’re either:

1.) A drunk college kid who doesn’t care
2.) A homeless person who doesn’t have a cell

These are exactly the types of people who would laugh at such an idea.

dumbfounder

June 27th, 2007 at 1:59 pm

I think this works better as a feature for Twitter, you just text “gotta pee” and it tells you where to go. If they are smart they will try partnering with social networks that have mobile support to offer it as a service.
