First off, I've been looking for a way of logging personal data for a long time. I was going to use Google Document's forms, but YFD looks like it'll be a lot easier to use on the go from my iPod. The data analysis tools also have gotten me excited.
Thank you.
I have one feature request: I'd love to be able to use predefined constants that can be substituted for a numerical value. Some example usecases:
apple = 91 calories
urgent = 10 (e.g. for tracking diarrhea)
mild = 1 (e.g. tracking pain)
Ultimately, it would be great if constants such as "apple" could be substituted for different values based on the context. For example:
apple = 91 calories
apple = 273 mg fat
(Or if nutritional information could be automatically pulled from Wolfram Alpha.)
I know that everything I mentioned can be done by downloading the csv data (thanks, btw) and manipulating it yourself, but it would be great if yfd provided an extensible platform for doing so as well. Do you have any plans to open (source) the platform?
