Weigh In

I’m working on a weight-tracking app for android.

You can play with what I have so far by downloading the apk file here and installing it:

APK file to install Weight Tracker

Scan with your phone's barcode scanner

So far you just enter how much you weigh. It keeps track of when you weigh yourself and computes a running average. This way you can weigh yourself as often (or not often) as you like and it will produce a nice stable representation of your weight without the daily ups and downs. More features to come.

qqrr.it POC

I cobbled together a POC for my QR-code generating site.
To use it, make an image url like so:

http://qqrr.it/<whatever you want goes here>

e.g.

http://qqrr.it/http://bellybuttonporn.com

QR Code for bellybuttonporn

Splat!

TODO:

  1. Talk about security. What sort of escaping do I need to do? How likely is this to be abused?
  2. an actual index for the site. It’ll have some cute examples and google ads. Lots of google ads.
  3. make it so you don’t have to use the /q/ in the url.
  4. add other features as 1-letter subdirectories, e.g. /b/ would make a “big” splat.
  5. Make the sizing smart. e.g. guess based on the length of the supplied string how big to make the splat.

Update March 22nd: Fixed a couple things. Added the home page. Try it out: http://qqrr.it/
