Sobriety Check? There's an App for That!

'Tis the season. Holiday parties are still in full swing and New Year's is right around the corner. Webroot has an app that may help you make the right decision should you overindulge!

TDA Boulder and Webroot have developed the Social Media Sobriety Test for those times that you can’t be trusted with your own good judgment. The Social Media Sobriety Test can possibly make you think twice before you commit that social media faux pas and regrettable post with a photo that makes you an overnight YouTube sensation!

The test consists of a series of both coordination and cognition challenges which evaluate your sobriety. Users are asked to drag the mouse in a straight line, follow a finger, or just hold their Android or iPhone level while standing on one leg. Low score? You will be more likely advised to avoid sending that tweet or text and receive a recommendation for a taxi company or nearby motel based on your location. A higher score will get you the address of a local bar where you can continue your party.
