Two DEMO companies to launch geo products for carpooling, dieting

Rafe Needleman has the list of folks presenting at DEMO Fall. Among his current “top ten to watch” are two geo-related businesses.

Sharelift by Mapflow: Adds intelligence to casual carpooling with a car-service-like gizmo that tells drivers where riders are that want to go where they are going. It’s hitchhiking 2.0: Scary but cool, and very green.

WebDiet: Location-based diet helper. Gives you food advice based on what’s close to you. Unknown if it gives you an electric shock and shrieks, “Keep walking!” when you pass a McDonald’s.
