Pranav from StartupDunia covered LifeMojo. More on it here. Thanks Pranav for the kind words. He has a valuable suggestion for us :
My only suggestion to LifeMojo would be to keep the contents and the service relevant to Indians and the Indian lifestyle. Its easy to get inspired from similar sites-services catering to the US population (Traineo, Gyminee), but its important to keep the context relevant to the Indian society - lifestyle.
We have seen a lot of products / portals on health and frankly even after the years of their existence, I still find them really complex to use and focusing only on the US Market. India is rising to “Good Health” and we are super happy about it. The fact is, there is a lack of products / services that cater to “How do I stay healthy?” market, essentially because this market was small and has started growing fairly recently (good news is, its growing at a rapid pace). We plan to focus only on Indians at least for the next couple of years because we feel India has a huge potential and we understand and can cater to its diverse market needs.

Lot of you have used (and appreciated) our calorie lookup for both food items and activities. So, we thought we should make it more accessible, and what better way and to bring that to your mobile.
Now you can lookup calorie content of any food item or the calorie burnt by any activity, by SMSing cal <item name> to +91 9900118018 (eg. cal rice or cal walking) and you would receive a SMS with the calorie content / calorie burnt.
————————————————
[Update] This feature of SMS calorie lookup will not be available after April 20, 2009.
However, you can still search for the calories of a food item or activity by visiting www.lifemojo.com/health-guides or by adding calories@lifemojo.com as a chat friend on GTalk/Gmail chat. For more details on calorie search on GTalk/Gmail chat, check out: http://blog.lifemojo.com/2009/01/03/calorie-search-now-on-gtalk/

We noticed that there is a nice theme that promotes AllTop on Guy Kawasaki’s twitter page. Which seems like a good idea to promote lifemojo on twitter. We created a background image for twitter, and are now using it on our LifeMojo twitter page.
You can check it out here.
