Twitter to Help You Lose Weight?
Newly
launched TweetWhatYouEat.com Uses Twitter to Track Food, Weight.
Twitter-based Food Diary Helps Users Track Calories At Home, Office, or
On the Go
New York, NY (PRWEB) -- No longer just a tool for overconnected teens, the
micro-blogging service Twitter has emerged as a powerful tool for
communication, networking, and now... weight loss?
That's right - with the newly launched TweetWhatYouEat.com, Twitter
users can track their food intake and weight from their mobile phone,
instant messaging, or the Web.
Best of all - you don't even have to know the calories of the food
you're eating - TweetWhatYouEat's proprietary CrowdCal database will
automatically fill calories in for you!
While the CrowdCal database is unique, it's not all about the calories
says Alex Ressi, founder and chief developer of TweetWhatYouEat.
"Unlike other food diaries, you don't have to pick apart your food
piece by piece," says Ressi. "If you eat a cheeseburger, you enter
cheeseburger in your TweetWhatYouEat diary - the database will figure
out the rest. We wanted to remove the barriers that make food tracking
difficult - this is as simple as it gets."
TweetWhatYouEat launched in January 2008, and has a number of planned
enhancements including a iPhone application currently under
development.
To get started using TweetWhatYouEat, go to www.tweetwhatyoueat.com or just follow @TWYE on Twitter.
