Well put. This sounds like my experience, and I agree that the freedom to build what I want to put out in the world feels like wealth to me. I hope the money wealth follows. :) Cheers to SaaS adventures! Thanks for putting this out there.

Ooh, this is really neat. :) I'd love to test - would be incredibly useful for my project right now. I'll PM you :)

"We Now Support Metric!" :) Haha, just added it in about 15 minutes. Currently working on getting the user's location by IP address. Thanks for the feedback.

(and I'm in a similar boat too). I'm already healthy, but just want flat abs - I started this tool because I wanted to get a better idea of what I had to do to get that - how much weight to lose, or if I needed to be building muscle and not

Yeah, I could do that or MyFitnessPal - I guess I'm not sure on the ethics. People themselves want to share their photos, but is it okay to reach them through someone else's fitness site? Hacker News and non-fitness-related sites seemed kos

Ooh, good call. Thanks. :)

I definitely want to target weight gain OR loss - or even staying the same, just trading fat for muscle - I just don't have enough stories yet so the code is pulling everything. Help me get some by sharing and telling your friends, or submi

Hey there - I'll be showing stories of all kinds, though right now I just don't have that much data so the code is pulling everything. I need more stories! If you guys have a story of your own or know anyone, please submit or send them my w

Thanks for the feedback. :) I've made it prominent for now in hopes that it's clear how people can help the project - share so we can get lots more inspirational stories, but if it gets more annoying than useful, I'll move it. Thanks! And t

Ditto here. I use GoDaddy for domain registration, and an InMotion VPS for hosting. The interface is confusing and cluttered, but their call-in support is always really friendly and reliable. Nothing makes my blood boil hotter than bad cust

I use MediaWiki now, I love it. It's free, and has really helped my organization. I use it for everything - passwords, API keys, links, random code snippets, etc. It's better than a text file to me, because both the structure and formatting

Ditto, my thoughts exactly. And I DO use a lot of exclamation points, naturally.

by katieben 15y ago
Yeah, I definitely am, though right now I'm thinking that's a good thing. I tend to take forever building/planning things and never launch.. the 1 x 52 project will get me in the mindset to actually launch, test concepts before spending too

Thanks so much for your input. I'm glad to hear that it's the industry standard. I think I'd rather swallow a high price point (either now or eventually) and learn the right way to do things, than there not be an industry standard. I'll pro
