Wow, online drinking. What will they think of next? Really though, this isn't any different from drinking alone, except it adds the pressure of having to pound your shots.

It also seems that it would a bit awkward. You have to drink from a glass that is tethered to your computer. I see a lot of spills occurring.

It tracks how much liquid is in the glass and then, while online with "drinking buddies," reports the info online. That way your friends can peer pressure you to finish your drink in one go while allowing you to vomit in the comfort of your own home.
