    DietBet is an app for people with a competitive streak. Available for iPhone and on the Web, it allows its users to join in a four-week weight loss challenge to lose 4 percent of weight. Everyone bets money, which goes into a fund, and submits proof of weight lost. People who meet the challenge split the money.

    This sounds like a great idea. Most diets fail because the dieter is on their own and have to rely on their own will power. If you use mobile social technologies of smartphones to provide more incentives then dieters will have more success.
