There isn’t a driver in America right now who doesn’t cringe a little every time they drive up to the pump, I don’t care what you drive. So, in this world of daily rising fuel costs, tracking your gas consumption is a necessity if you want to ever see any relief from the pain. Enter FuelFrog, a new web application that launched last week, which aims to make tracking your gas mileage and consumption easier and thus (hopefully) eventually lower your bills.

FuelFrog is hugely simple, and incredibly useful which tons of potential. After each fill up, users enter their miles traveled since the last fill, the price paid, and the amount of gasoline in gallons. Then, over time, FuelFrog will track and graph your fuel consumption data so you can do things like identify trends in gas prices in your area, see how fuel efficient your car is, how much you’re driving, and how much you’re spending. Second Pixel (FuelFrog’s parent company) co-founder David Rasch said in a press release,

“We’re paying more attention to our impact on the environment today than we ever have before and FuelFrog is making it easier to track fuel consumption and the impact, not only on our wallets, but on the environment”.

Information can be entered via the web, or via Twitter (and, if you’re a Twitter user, go ahead and follow me here and Nate here), which means that you can log your fuel data immediately after filling up via your mobile phone.

For what its worth, FuelFrog also plans to give users access to aggregated data from other users, allowing you to compare your vehicle’s fuel consumption against another make and model, for instance, or your city’s average gas prices to those in another area.
