Intermittent issue resolved

For various reasons, our disk space usage has increased sharply over past few weeks.  Between last night and this morning, we were running out of space for some of the functions.  You may have seen intermittent errors with photo uploads, etc.

We regret the errors.  We have temporary fix in place.  We will greatly expand the available space over the weekend.

Improved Logging, Fewer Errors

We have recently improved logging of errors from the browser.   This has allowed us to have new visibility into errors that occurred within the browser.  We have corrected a couple of important errors.

Our web pages have a large amount of script code that runs within the browser.  Until now, many errors with this script were not trapped or logged.  The reasons is that the script itself needed to load before the error could be trapped or logged.  We have updated this system to phone home with more often.  We can now have some visibility into errors where the pages did not load completely.

Please let us know if you see any errors trying to use the site.

We Continue to Upgrade Growth Charts

In recent days, we have added many new features that are targeted for growing children. You can select an account to be for a growing child either when you create the account or via the Preferences page.

Growth charts allow you to specify weight, height, and head circumference. The charts show your percentile based on the CDC data. These percentile curves are same as the ones used by pediatricians. You are also able show statistics for your weight relative to your height.

Now, you are able create Trackables for other things that your want to track for growing children.

Once children grow up, they can switch their account to Weight Chart and yet keep all of the historical growth data.

We also invite you to explore the same charts and statistics before you sign up at the following link:

Now you can chart Trackables

WeightChart Trackables have been rolled out during past few months. In addition to your weight, notes, and feeling indicators, WeightChart trackables allow you to start tracking nearly anything. There are predefined trackables for glasses of water, blood pressure, glucose, etc. But, it is quick and easy to define your own trackables.

Until now, you could only see the Trackable values in the table view. Now, you can add graphs of the Trackables to visualize you progress. This is a great addition; try it!
