This is a good concept, but I don't think it will be useful until your fridge has a camera and can keep the inventory itself. At the very least voice commands. I just can't see many people going through the effort of keeping inventory themselves even though access to the information is very useful.

it allll starts somewhere.

i do NOT want to think about the marathon weekends i spent in the early 1990s on my little Mac IIsi sliding CDs into the computer & **MANUALLY** keying in the track names for each song. thought that was the coolest damn thing i'd seen in my life to be able to put an audio CD into my computer & show my friends that the tracks had names!!! WOWOW!

then a couple years later i discovered CDDB and was amazing you could push a button after putting your music CD in and it would "magically" guess the tracks & fill in the names.


then i discovered napster and i was like FML
