NEW YORK, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- A New York City Web site allows those who need to make an emergency bathroom stop avoid catastrophe by using their cell phone, its creators say.
Named Diaroogle.com, the search engine, accessed by mobile phone, purports to give frantic users a reliable list clean public and private bathrooms in a given part of New York by typing in an address, the New York Post reported Sunday.
Software developer Evan Cooney and graphic designer Kevin Burg told the newspaper they came up the idea as a joke but after finding serious interest, began touring and photographing some of Manhattan's best-kept bathroom secrets.
If no bathroom can be found, they suggest using a toilet at a New York firehouse -- but only if you ask nicely, the newspaper said. The New York Fire Department said no one will be turned away.
