We woke up this morning to find out that Graphite has been covered on Mashable.com!   Mashable is one of the top 5 blogs on the internet and has over 2.6 million visitors each month.   Christina did a nice job highlighting the differentiators and getting to the heart of what Graphite is all about.  Starting to spread the word!

Here at Graphite, we have a firm belief in the power of Tracking.  By Tracking, we mean the act of recording meals and exercise activity as way to manage your weight and fitness.  Our enthusiasm for tracking is based on the personal experiences of our Graphite team members as well as the hundreds of users who test drove our beta application, iTrakOnline.com. The idea is a simple one. By recording what you eat, you are creating a level of awareness of your eating habits that is simply not possible unless you 'track' what you eat. It's really that simple. Studies have shown that people who track their meals lose up to twice as much weight as those who don't.
