FuelFrog is out!
The answer is, FuelFrog. Over the past 9 weeks, we’ve conceived an idea, branded, implemented, tested, launched, and started to market a brand new web application. I’ll be talking more over the next few weeks about the technology behind FuelFrog and what’s coming up for new features!
We know that you care about how your car affects the environment. What better way to understand and manage this than to start tracking it! FuelFrog will help you keep an eye on your gas consumption, mileage, and also help you understand how gas prices affect your budget.
Through integration with Twitter, it’s easy to keep FuelFrog up to date. Each time you fill up, simply send @fuelfrog miles price gallons for example, my last fillup was @fuelfrog 320 3.539 10.293. We’ll do all the rest!
Log on to FuelFrog now and try it out!

Looks interesting. Here’s some additions I’d like to see to it, though:
1. Have a way to bulk import data. I’ve got about 3 years worth of this data but I really would prefer not to have to type it in one entry at a time.
2. Give the users more graphs. The basic mpg one is great! I’d also like to see how the price of gas has gone up over time and possibly how long I’ve gone between fill-ups.
The twitter integration is very nice, btw.

Tanner, thanks for the feedback on FuelFrog!
1. Great idea, added to the future feature idea list. I can’t wait to tackling this and making it simple.
2. On the way, some ideas include:
1. gas price over time
2. driving price over time (the effect of both gas consumption and rising fuel prices)
3. compare your mileage with others
Thanks!
David
