A doorman decides who's hot or not via an iPad.

Clubbers at a Miami hotspot find out the dreaded answer to whether their names are on the guest list thanks to iPads.

Like wine lists for restaurants, this is a nice use of digital over paper — staffers in the noisy locale know immediately when a table opens up or who is coming in, though it could be expensive if the iPad is around when the inevitable scuffle occurs.

“We’re all connected, we have a better connection with each other,” says the Liv staffer in featured in the video clip above.

We suspect it’ll be harder to crash the night spot where Jennifer Lopez, Jay Z and the Kardashians are rumored to hang out.
