Every day it seems there’s some new bit of Web 2.0 wonderment that’s supposed to blow the minds of everyone. Of course, most of these so-called “applications” simply turn out to be pure flash n’ trash. But I recently learnt of one such Web 2.0 thingie that’s so important, it may change the face of the Internets (and humanity) forever! It’s Foodfeed. Simply put, Foodfeed keeps track of what you eat. It’s integrated with Twitter, and it’s really easy to use. The Foodfeed Twitter account is found here. You follow it, and then begin a Twitter post with the clever “@having” tag, and whatever you’ve sent will automatically post to your Foodfeed account. That’s it. Take a look at my Foodfeed account to see how it works.
I’ve got no idea what Foodfeed can/will do beyond what it does now. There doesn’t seem to be any way to create an account there outside of the Twitter-based method described above. And beyond that, the Foodfeed site itself is rather lacking in features. But you could search the Foodfeed site for certain key terms and then, I guess, find new Twitter followers based on those searches. Whatever. I just find the whole thing to be rather amusing. Props to Wesley, whose Twitter account first lead me to the glory that is Foodfeed.

I thought “learnt” was the British way to say/spell it?
