Tweet What You Eat is a pretty cool idea for a Twitter Bot. I’ve lost nearly 35 pounds total and 10 of that in the last 6-7 weeks. I love anything that helps me along that goal and since I use twitter alot anyway,
Tweet What You Eat looks like a fun and easy way to help keep track of what I’m eating. If you’ve never written down what you eat and drink in a day I think you would be shocked at how much you actually consume. Those nibbles here and there add up.
TWYE works just like most bots, you follow, they follow and you direct message them your updates. Here’s their instructions:
- You make friends with ‘TWYE’ through Twitter. Simply tweet or twit ‘follow twye.’
- ‘TWYE’ then makes friends with you. In order for that to happen, you must follow the setup steps.
- You then send direct messages to TWYE with food items you’ve eaten like this, ‘d twye yogurt cup.’
- Tweetwhatyoueat.com checks the direct messages going to the TWYE account at regular intervals and parses and stores the contents and displays them in your diary.
This looks pretty slick and is already being featured on Lifehacker, so you know it’s going to bet some serious usage.
