Starbucks Mobile Pour App Launches

Filed under: Daily Hot List

Have you ever been walking down the street and had an immediate craving for a venti, 2-pump sugar-free vanilla, non-fat, extra-hot latte but no time to stop?

Introducing Starbucks Mobile Pour, a smartphone app launched today that allows customers to order via smartphone and get their drink delivered on the street by a barista riding a scooter.

Sounds cool and convenient, right? Too bad it's Starbucks' April Fools' Day prank to the world.

For non-devotees of Starbucks, the Mobile Pour app may seem frivolous but for worshipers at the Church of Starbucks, the app is a genius idea. Think of all the times you've been in a hurry to get somewhere and desperately needed a caffeine boost. Starbucks Mobile Pour to the rescue! It's a joke for now but surely someone is thinking of a way to turn this April Fools' Day prank into reality.
