(Gas Mileage) Figure out your gas burn with MyMileMarker - Webware/Cnet

Enter MyMileMarker , a simple and useful solution for figuring out how much driving is costing you in gas, and how many miles you’re likely to put on your vehicle in the course of a year. Setting up your vehicle with MyMileMarker is about as simple as it gets–just put in the make and model of your car, or give it a nickname (useful if you’re the type of person who names their car). From there, you need simply add your odometer reading every time you add gas to your car, be it a fill-up or just a few gallons. Instead of using their own mobile service (like a call center or an automated message process), MyMileMarker uses Twitter as their medium for users to send in mileage reports from their phones. You can only edit or delete your most recent entry, which means if you mistype the price of gas, or your odometer reading, you have to delete, and then re-enter the listing (which you can only do from the Web). Of course there are several other ways to track your gas usage–like getting a credit card just for gas purchases, and doing monthly odometer tracking on a spreadsheet– but if you’d like the added benefit of predictions, MyMileMarker shows how scarily expensive owning a vehicle can be. read more
