Hi guys, thanks for the feedback and kind words.

Apple just approved our second iPhone app, GoodFood, which should make it even easier to find and rec restaurants while on the go.

The new GoodFood app is all native, so it’s much faster than our initial offering. It’s also more tightly focused on restaurants, so it should be much easier to find and filter recs based on criteria such as price, cuisine, which friend rated it, etc.

And unlike our first app, GoodFood is now completely open, so you can download and use the app right away without signing up.

We think it’s one of the best apps out there for finding recommendations, especially if you like flickable maps. Hope you find it useful.

I love Goodrec. I think it’s a very user-friendly site and the iPhone app is fabulous.

I recently wrote about all the foodie iPhone apps that I really like to use and some that I won’t use but others might.

Until there’s a standard that somehow puts ratings into the public domain, I just see sites like this struggling, and watering down what’s already out there.

Best of luck to them. 20k restaurant reviews during Beta is actually pretty good. However, it’s only the tip of the iceberg on what they’ll need to get.

I’ve been tinkering with it. They get huge kudos for replying to my feedback the very same day! Visually appealing, easy to use. Off to a good start.

Didn’t like being hammered to email my friends but it does give you the option to skip it. A bit hard to navigate by neighborhood vs city but per the rep, they are supposed to add it.

It would really be nice if they offered an app for the G1. A HUGE improvement on the trainwreck that is Yelp. Also easier to load on a mobile device as well.

I think this site will be a success. It will come in handy when I need an honest opinion about a restaurant I never been to before.

F### !!

WHAT’S UP WITH THAT GODDAMN AUTOMATIC PAGE REFRESH THAT YOU GUYS ADDED RECENTLY ?!

Everytime I’m in the f#cking middle of a post, it reloads the page and I can go scrolling again for 1 hour.

I know you probably did this to create more $$$ with your ads, but it’s really, really stupid.
