Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for capturing first information (such as a digital photograph) descriptive of a health-related item (such as a meal or fitness device), and transmitting the first information to a server which queues the first information for subsequent association with second information (such as nutritional content information) descriptive of the health-related item. In one embodiment of the present invention, a user uses a cellular cameraphone to capture a digital photograph of a meal to be eaten, and transmits the digital photograph over a cellular telephone connection to a server, where the digital photograph is stored in the user'"'"'s account. Additional information, such as a timestamp, may be generated automatically and transmitted for storage with the digital photograph. The user subsequently connects to the account and tags the digital photograph with nutritional information descriptive of the meal. Accurate and efficient tracking of the user'"'"'s nutritional intake is thereby facilitated.
