Who said technology wasn't cool? I came across a web application that tells you what your blood alcohol level would be based on your gender, weight, type of drink, and time since last drink. Its a website that is targeted to the iPhone (yes, I have an iPhone. Jealous?), but functions regardless of the browser you are using. Here is the site:

There are disclaimers stating that this should not determine if you should be driving, but at least its a step in the right direction as to the tools that could be available to help make informed decision. There are other tools out there like this, but I liked this one because it gave you options on what you had to drink (ie alcohol level of drink) and also took into account time frame from your first drink. This is not perfect by any means. For example, you cannot tell it you had 1 bloody mary, 2 beers, and red wine for dinner. All those drinks have varying levels of alcohol and this site only assumes you've consumed one type of drink. I'm going to bookmark this site on my iPhone and show it to friends at the bar. This is a good way to raise awareness.
