[quote] NEED a condom? There's an app for that. The New York City Health Department on Monday unveiled a smartphone application that will help users locate the nearest place in the area giving out free condoms. 'We want New York City to be the safest city in the world to have sex,' said Dr Monica Sweeney, the city's assistant health commissioner. 'A lot of people come here for that, so we want them to practice safer sex.' The application, available for download on the iPhone and Android phones, taps into the city's database of over 1,000 different locations which offer free condoms. It uses GPS technology or an address input to give users directions to the nearest five places in the city that are giving out free condoms. The city is rolling out the application on Valentine's Day. For the past five years, the city has been giving out free condoms at an average of 3 million a month.[/quote] [url]http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/TechandScience/Story/STIStory_635045.html[/url]
Slow news day.
Free love :buddy:
Hey man safe sex is good sex.
Bah. If you have the money for an iPhone, it can't hurt to splurge for some decent condoms.
Yeah, this will be useful for the majority of facepunch users.
The only use a Facepuncher has for a condom is inflating it like a balloon.
This is a good idea
Hell of a lot better than attempting to preach abstinence

Someone should go infect them all and watch all the horny bastards in New York get some sort of sexual sickness.
Couldn't be a better city to try it out in. Seriously, with such a dense population in a small area (relative to the number of people, I mean), contraceptives are [i]necessary[/i] to avoid further overpopulation.
That's actually a really good idea

Downloading...now.
Was expecting an app that actually turned your phone into a condom
This is a good idea. Shame abstinence isn't practical, but this is apparently the next best thing.

what isn't there an app for? haha
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;28062226]Free love :buddy:[/QUOTE] The condom is free, the hooker isn't.
If there is a rule that I live by it's that free condoms are bad condoms. They are generally of bad quality and will break really easily, it would be like getting them from the dollar store. Would you trust dollar store condoms?
