MizPee's "Flush of the Year" Contest Lets People on the Go Rate the City's Best -- and Most Disgusting -- Toilets

CHICAGO, IL--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 2, 2008 -- Chicago area residents are off and running to find the cleanest and filthiest bathrooms in the city. MizPee (www.MizPee.com), a free mobile service that helps people on the go find the nearest available restroom, kicks off its month-long "Flush of the Year" contest today. Area residents, and travelers visiting the windy city, can add and review their most memorable flushes, or cast their votes for the current leaders, at www.flushoftheyear.com.

The award-winning MizPee service, developed by Yojo Mobile (www.yojomobile.com), delivers a list of nearby toilets with their levels of cleanliness, when people enter their location into their mobile browser. Facility details, including purchase requirements, diaper-changing amenities and handicap accessibility, are also provided. Users who have visited specific restrooms and experienced conditions first-hand can enter their reviews on the www.mizpee.com website.

To put power in every flush, Yojo Mobile is donating $1.00 for each unique restroom vote to Chicago Cares (www.chicagocares.org), which provides unique volunteer experiences for individuals, businesses and organizations to help combat many of the community's most urgent needs. The contest runs until midnight October 31, 2008.

Results of MizPee's Chicago "Flush of the Year" contest will be announced the week of November 3, 2008. The restroom with the highest ratings will receive an award to display at their facility or on their website -- and bragging rites among area establishments.

Since the introduction of the MizPee beta site in June 2007, the site has had more than 3 million hits and has served over 300,000 unique users.
