Thanks for the feedback! I'm working to make "public" profile pages (which are off by default, one must explicitly opt-in to expose their data) so you can eventually see my data. I've just started exercising more diligently for the past week, so I'm waiting for the stats to show me something interesting, then I can report on what I have realized :) Already the moving 7 and 30 day average lines have shown me a lot. The charts are hoverable and selectable (click/drag and it will zoom in to the selection; you can also select a timeframe from the nav bar above each graph). What would you like the graph to do when it is clicked? I'm open to suggestions.

Hey - of course - you've helped me tons in the past on the IRC channel, good to help out. Definitely interested in seeing moving averages as these help give some perspective on getting better or doing more fitness. I've used moving averages before on weight (http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/www/hackdiet.html http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/www/hackdiet.html) and definitely found them useful. Site seems to be down for now - though from memory what i'd like the graph to do is be able to compare data this week to last week / this month to last month...basically anything that lets me feel like i'm doing better than before.

  good suggestions. for now, each section has a "7/30 day ave", "previous" section so you can compare the current ave to the previous period's ave. yeah, heroku is down at the moment (grrr), so i'm waiting for them to wake back up.

    hey - so had a thought on what the chart should do when clicked and didn't come up with anything really interesting. Thought a modal window with the stats for that day (comparing to running avg for previous week) would be the most intuitive thing, though it isn't all that exciting. The only other thing that came to mind that was interesting was to give me a sense of how far I had come. For instance, the chart on the front page shows 300 miles. If I was walking from SF to LA how far down would I be? I ride a stationary bike most mornings and that is how I relate to how far I've been. It's fun, and easy measure and make me feel awesome knowing how close I'm getting to the other end!
