SkinnyrJimmy from Skinnyr sent me a note this morning with a bunch of updates to the application. I reviewed Skinnyr as part of the Fat-Off Challenge.

Skinnyr provides a way to chart your weight, share the charts on sites like MySpace, Facebook, your blog, etc., and get your BMI (Body Mass Index) rating.

The updates today to Skinny include:

  • Updated logo -- I added a slight reflection to the logo and changed the little logo guy to purple, as it states on the foil-burst.
  • Language support! -- It will have Spanish in there very soon, but yes multiple language support is there. I'm still looking for translators for russian, chinese and japanese.
  • Obfuscatr no more -- The name has been changed to Weight Blurr. In addition, you can specify your own start weight in case you joined skinnyr mid-diet.
  • Record paging -- If you have a lot of records you now can page through them to access the old ones.
  • Record My Weight form -- Instead of just the JS link, there is now a form to add your weight... including the ability to select the date you want to use. Past records are now a possibility.
  • Unit selection -- You can now select "lbs and inches" or "kg and cm" for your weight and height. The BMI formulas adjust accordingly.

What I like about Skinnyr is that they were/are open to my (and everyone's) suggestions to make the application better.

Go get Skinnyr!

Subject: bad design

while they may have "made a few changes and updates" Their site is not working properly. I have attempted to register several times, each time I am told my account has been created and I am logged in. Unfortunately that isn't the case. The newly created username does not exist, I am /not/ logged in.. *sigh* guess I'll try them again later...

Michael, you're absolutely correct. My apologies. I didn't test registration *without* a "starting weight". The issue has been resolved (I just saw this 5 minutes ago and had a heart attack).

Sorry for the mishap! If you find anything in the future, please don't hesitate to email me at jthomas ... a.t... axisdenied.com
