It’s called Best When Used By, and it’s a site for tracking the expiration dates of your perishable foods. You put in a food and its “use by” date, and then the site e-mails you a few days before that date to remind you to use the food. That reminder e-mail will also link to recipes that use the food as an ingredient.

I started the site after realizing that I tend to forget about food in the fridge until it’s too late, and I have to throw it away. Countless jars of spaghetti sauce, partial loaves of bread, and blocks of cheese have met their moldy demise because I just wasn’t keeping track of their lifespan.

I’m maintaining a blog for the site over here, so if you’re interested in the project, you can subscribe to the RSS feed to stay updated on any new developments.

More importantly, I’ve also been blogging for a little over a year. This means that I can start taking the lazy way out and post Lifehacker-esque “Retro Roundup: One Year Ago on Now I Have a Blog Too” entries.

What did I blog about one year ago today? Nothing. I must have been busy with something else…
