"We are thrilled to be recognized by Time as one of the best websites of
2008," said Michael Putnam, CEO of Zeer. "Time's inclusion of Zeer on their
Best of the Web list validates the importance of the information we provide
to consumers. With the growing importance of food choices and trends --
including healthy eating, organic food and green products -- and rising grocery
prices, it's harder than ever for consumers to figure out what foods are
best for them. Zeer is committed to helping people find and buy better
groceries."

product information, interest-specific communities and consumer reviews.
