Pepsi iPhone App Draws Criticism
Pepsi's recently released iPhone application Amp Up Before You Score has raised eyebrows as it purports to help users score dates.
The application, tied to Pepsi's new Amp energy drink, breaks women into 24 category types -- like bookworms, cougars, marrieds and actresses -- so users can "study up quick with a cheatsheet on the stuff she's into, with lists, links and some surefire opening lines."
Jezebel calls the Pepsi iPhone app "completely unacceptable and ridiculously offensive."
