Check www.freshmeat.net; apps like this would be posted there.

You may find some apps w/only a MySQL version; if so, consider doing the
translation to PostgreSQL -- in most cases, little/no change in code is
neccessary (especially if the author is using Perl or Python, which tend
to have more abstracted DB interfaces than PHP); usually all that's needed
is just to edit the SQL statements to create/select/etc. from the schema.

If there is a calorie intake application, please don't tell me about it
;-)

Good luck!
