Some of you may have seen a little teaser image on Facebook a couple days ago, and I'd thought it may be fun to post it on the actual blog.
Redesign in the works!
We are currently planning an overhaul of the tracking system, and we hope to roll it out in a few months. I've enlisted the help of a digital media specialist, and I am super excited about the early results!
To be honest, I'm not really all that thrilled about the current system that's in place. It has the basic necessities that allow me to gather statistics for each Weigh-In Wednesday post, but beyond that it is fairly limited (and a bit of a hack job, in my opinion). My hope for the new system is to make it much more accessible, more informative, and significantly more pretty.
I've been brainstorming about a lot of new ideas and about what has worked well—and what hasn't worked well—in the current system. I would love to hear from actual users about what they want to see added or removed. It is always interesting to have additional insights.
Thinking of things that you wish you could do on the site? Are you competitive and want to see your data graphed next to a specific friend? Or do you want to have a head-to-head AFP challenge with your spouse? Let me know what would be cool and what you would use!
P.S. Look for more teasers over the next several weeks as things progress!
I’ve been such a bum lately! I promise to actually submit stuff next week! I’ve truthfully always thought that the current system was pretty sophisticated. I deal with online tracking systems all day (most government run), and yours is one of the most user friendly and professional. I’m excited to see what bells and whistles you pull out next!
haha, its ok! I know you’ve been super busy so I didn’t want to hastle you =).
Thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it! I’m excited to build from the ground up with all the tools that i’ve learned since starting… should be a solid end product!
Woo! I’m excited to see what you do 🙂
I think it might be helpful if we could easily see how our numbers are shaping up for the upcoming Weigh-In Wednesday (currently I add up each workout individually, which can be a bit tedious for days that have a variety of different workouts). Of course, if there already is a feature like that that I’m missing, please let me know.) Also, I’d definitely be up for a spouse-to-spouse challenge, but I think it’s clear David would kick my butt!!
Thank you for helping us both to live healthier and work out regularly—2FNS makes a difference in our daily lives.
I’m glad you guys are using it and liking it!
I do want to rework the “Past Seven Days” measurement, so that it zero’s out on wednesdays so you can see how many points you have on a given week… I don’t like counting either!
I think David would kick everyones butt in head to head challenge, he is doing a ton of work!
I’ll add those to the features list i think =)
Whoops! *live healthier lives
