DDF: don't drink and FB.

This is for all you web-savvy drinkers....does this sound familiar? 

You come in late at night after having a few drinks with friends.  It's been a long day and you just want to unwind and catch up on the daily news feed happenings of the trusty ol' social network.  After logging in, you decide to go grab another beer from the fridge; you've earned it -- the client presentation just didn't go as planned.  You get back on to Facebook and BAM! "We'll there goes that piece of new business. Thanks a lot @Jimmy."  Not only have you called out and TAGGED you office best friend for your entire network, including your boss AND client to see.  (Admit it, you're friends with your clients, too).

This routine is familiar to college students and those in the working world as well: the dreaded drunk Facebook connection.  Yet, how do you overcome this because, let's face it, Facebook calls after a night out?  How about a web browser application, from Webroot that should be touted as the "breathalizer" of social media? Behold: The Social Media Sobriety Test is here to help remind us to not drink and FB and helps prevent those 1am regrettable drunk posts.  So now my fellow Drunk Facebook friends, cheers and grab another beer!
