The Gist
Mark Bixby's fate is in your hands. Keep his heartrate between 70 and 120 by feeding him delicious bacon (heartrate up) or tasty juice (heartrate down).
You can also feed him through twitter by typing "@bixbyheart eat some bacon" or "@bixbyheart drink some juice".

The Background
We met Mark Bixby at SXSWi in 2007, and had a hell of a time laughing it up at IHOP. Mark loves a good laugh, but he also loves bacon (can you blame him? It's nature's candy). Last year we vowed to build a web-app that would help us keep an eye on his ticker. Bixbyheart.com was born.
FAQ
WTF, iPhone only?
We were gonna make it work with IE, but then we found out they don't have IE for the iPhone. Yet. You can still view/use the app on Firefox, it just won't look as purdy.
Bixby's heartrate is way too low/high, what can I do?
