"Where there are sensors, there is data - and where there is data there is analysis, actionable thresholds and functional mashups across data sets and technologies."

This is a quote from a great article about MIT’s efforts to create a fiber capable of detecting and emitting sound.

Cool technology - but the quote really reflects how I view GoodEatsFor.Me. Across the disparate communities of Foursquare, Foodspotting, Twitter, Yelp, Facebook and many others….consumers are generating tremendous amounts of data about the hospitality experience. We are analyzing and developing actionable thresholds which are predicated on these functional mashups across these data sets.

The metrics and insights gleaned from this data mashup and presented in an easy to consume dashboard create opportunities to really understand customers - and subsequently interact with them where appropriate.

That’s exciting and one of the many reasons that we are passionate about what we are working on with GoodEatsFor.Me.
