I am looking forward to the API. I am much more likely to continually use Beeminder if it can be automatically updated or, failing that, updated easily from a mobile device. The site is actually OK (not great) to navigate with a phone, but typing updates is not that easy.
Thanks for the hard work. Beeminder looks like a great tool.
Yeah, I personally really love the graphs that I don’t have to manually enter data for, like my weight (withings scale) or any time-based goal [http://tagti.me] or pushups (sort of, thanks to an Android app that Bethany Soule wrote [1]).
[1] It counts pushups by touching your nose to your phone. You still have to enter on Beeminder but it’s an odometer-style goal so no need to enter every day. It would actually be pretty easy to connect it to Beeminder so no data entry is needed at all, if there’s demand for that...
