Beerdo! is a new (at least to me) site to allow you to rate your beer using Twitter. That means you can use any Twitter client or SMS to send ratings.
Rating is easy since all you do is @ message beerdo with the name of the beer followed by exclamation points for how many points to give it (from 1 – 5). For example to rate Bud Light Chelada with one star (unfortunately, they don’t have negative ratings) you’d send: @beerdo Bud Light Chelada !
You can see what people are rating at the Beerdo! site or on Twitter. Due to the volume of tweets, I wouldn’t follow them on Twitter but just check out their page.
It would be cool to be able to go to the Beerdo! site and see things like ratings for a beer, highest/lowest rated beers and what’s hot.
