Foodspotting, a Flickr-Meets-Foursquare Service for Foodies

9 pointsby payjoabout 15 years ago
I'd love to hear what you guys think about this site. I had an idea to create a menupages.com but with reviews for each dish. They seem to be attacking this idea with a different approach. If the end goal is to get reviews for dishes, I don't think it will work since it's somewhat difficult to do so and I think reviews need structure which is something they don't have.

I've been participating for a couple months now and always kick myself when I forget to take a pic of my food – not only is this fun, but it's a great way to keep track of where you eat out and what you eat.

I think this is a great idea as well. I'm not sure if the end goal is to have reviews of dishes. If so, I think you need a more structured approach. A Yelp with menu reviews.

This is one of those ideas that seems obvious the second you see it. And wish you'd come up with yourself.

Great concept, great execution.<p>But I would suggest targeting one-or-two local markets - I typed in my city, got invited to be "first", service over for me.<p>Localizing gives you huge advantages for PR / marketing / user interaction / etc. and you lose very little in the "getting traction" state.
