UMBC alumnus Sean Kennedy featured on InTheCapital.com for BeerGivr app

"I owe you a beer" is a phrase that's thrown around a lot with very little follow through.

UMBC Alumnus Sean Kennedy (Information Systems '06) created a smartphone application that could change that. BeerGivr allows you to virtualy send your buddy a brew. When a friend wants to buy you a drink but can't make it to the bar, he can send a text message with a code that's currency in some local bars. As of now twenty bars participate in the BeerGivr project, among them Alewife, No Idea Tavern, and Bond Street Social.
