Have you heard of BACON JAM and know where to get it? Why is it so hard to discover specialty products? Love With Food ( http://lovewithfood.com ) is a a social media platform for food brands to easily reach out to home cook and foodies, so that (1) food brands have a new marketing/distribution channel to promote their products other than regular grocery stores or farmer's market. (2) home cooks and foodies (like me)…

A real foodie brings to the world her passion to share only the best special food that she has found. Can beat that kind of offering!

Spork is a hyper-local platform that enables granular local services, deals, and gifts. The first app built on the platform is a food discovery tool that helps users find dishes, decide on menu items, and share with friends - it’s like a yelp for dishes. http://www.sporkhub.com http://bit.ly/sporkforiphone

I love this - so useful.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Are the API keys etc stored at your end or are they sent through the use of your API?

They're stored at our end at the moment, but I can see that there would be value in allowing both methods.

That's what I was hoping.

I'm an Android developer, and it's trivial to extract API keys etc from an application, and for obvious reasons, you don't want to make it easy for applications to pretend to be your application.

Thanks for your reply!

Hey guys, Waiting on hold sucks. You call, navigate the prompts to the right department and then wait on hold, listening to terrible music and reminders of your importance. We want to spin that around. Instead, you tell us who you want to talk to at Verizon (eg someone in the billing dept) and we'll have them call you . http://www.fastcustomer.com In making it, we've tried to be guided by YC's "make something useful"…

I like this idea! I could use it just about every day. How will you monetize it?
