Hello, Blake Makers. Wondering where I’ve been, and why I haven’t been food blogging? Well, there are about five reasons why, and the FOOD CHAIN is one of them.
What is the Blake Makes Food Chain?
This idea starts with a flip. A flip is a small video camera that makes it sooper simple to capture video content, and upload it to YouTube. I’ve got two flip cameras, and I want to send them to you. You’ll get one and take it to dinner, or to the farmer’s market, or to the kitchen to make cookies with your kids. Next, you’ll upload it to your blog, but then you won’t send it back to me, but to the next foodie (I’ll cover postage).
I’ll track the progress of each camera as it travels across the country, and maybe around the world, on a Google Map like the one you see below. We are all connected, and this idea will bring us even closer together. If you want it, you’d better sign up now. This idea has already generated a lot of interest, and I’m sure there’ll be a waiting list soon.
Request To Join The Food Chain
The red thumb tacks below represent enthusiast early-adopters. We’re just about ready! The cameras will be mailed out in about a week.

Cool idea dude
I LOVE this idea (even if I don’t consider myself very camera-geneic (that’s like photogenic, only with cameras)). Sign me up!
what a wonderful way to connect us through food and technology – my two favorite things!
I’d give it a try.
Perhaps by the time the phones have travelled all over the US I will have lost 10 pounds, grown 10 years younger and learned how to use a Flip..wink..If it gains momentum don’t forget me up here in Canada.
I’m SO in… yay! What an excellent and exciting idea Blake!
Never heard of the flip, but your idea sounds awesome!
