I built this dashboard for the Chart.js Dashboard Challenge. You can vote for it here: http://cpo.st/1bmi7Yf and you can see the actual dashboard at the link above.
Different. Nike+ is more about exercise and sports motivation, Withings is more about the data. I feel inspired to workout with Nike+, Withings just gives me the data I want.
I'm using a JawboneUP to track mood, steps, calories, and sleep. And the Withings Smart Body Analyzer to track weight, and heart rate. And a few open source gems to pull down the data: https://github.com/chocolit/dashboard
You should put some axes on the steps/calories burned graphs. The upper left time looks like the updated time, but is the graph time over the past hour, day?
That's a great point! I initially had labels along the x-axis and then removed them for simplicity. But looks like I went a little too far.
Each individual data point is total steps and or calories for a singular day. The count in the top right is for today (and it's always the last data point on the graph). Then it goes today-1, today-2, etc..
Thanks for taking the time to check it out and providing some feedback, I do appreciate it :)
I'd pay a monthly fee for a service that let me create one of these and integrate it with the various workout/personal stats apps/gadgets/services. An app like Moves + a sleep monitor + a workout tracking app + a diet tracker all on one dashboard would be really neat.
We've just enabled third-party app support via our API and have a pretty powerful personal dashboard https://api.howareyou.com/ and https://howareyou.com/ – we're still working on integrating different applications and devices, but using our API, there is no reason why you or any other developer can't add your own.
That looks really nice. The demo and some of the ideas seem to good to be true. I'm not sure my doctor spends her time scanning a social network for status updates to decide who to drop in on.
That's a fair point, however, we're seeing a lot of social engagement from a community care aspect (chronic care / long-term conditions / nurses / mental health etc.)
I recently bought a fitbit, their online dashboard is pretty similar and you get access without a monthly fee. I'm pretty sure you can sign up and try it without getting a fitbit tracker, but the tracker is pretty nifty and it lights up the dashboard with all your info.
I have an aria, not a fitbit, and it's pretty cool. I really really really want integration with mint.com though, then you'd be able to track the fitness goals vs money spent, and come up with an optimized plan for everything.
I got a flex a month ago and I love it! I don't use the silent alarm feature, because I'm a light sleeper and I wake up when I wake up. The food log is a feature that I thought I won't use, but I am. Wish I also had a heart monitor.
I thought the same as you at first. But the "sleep quality" metric I'm using here is provided back from the JawboneAPI. It's yielded from some oddly weighted formula Jawbone uses.
Looks very slick! I suggest swapping the colors in the sleep quality circle so the aqua color represents the 72% of the circle, matching the color of the text label inside the circle.
You have a little bit of a problem with the beating heart animation -- it's jumped out of it's container and is on the border, and I'm running chrome 28
I find it more worrying that people are hand-wringing obsessively over any service that collects any amount of personal data. Promoting innovation and finding creative ways to approach problems are both much more important than enumerating the nefarious ways that people or groups or governments can use the resulting data.
While it's an important cause to fight for, some privacy discussions that are consuming various parts of the tech community these days are just silly.
I don't find anything about this service incredibly worrying. I'm much more worried about what we don't know -- the data-collecting activities we don't knowingly participate in. But since we don't know what we don't know, I try not to waste away my life hand-wringing over those things either.
my company open mhealth is building an open software architecture for digital health data. we want to make it easier to be able to integrate data from siloed applications so we can tell the patient story in a coherent and data driven way. check out the spec https://github.com/openmhealth/developer/wiki/DSU-API-1.0-Be...
https://www.tictrac.com do a good personal dashboard too. They normalize the data from different sources allowing you to, for example, compare stress levels against exercise and productivity etc allowing you to spot negative working patterns and other personal insights.

Edit: Looks like it is Swagger.

Weight, and heart rate are tracked using a Withings Smart Body Analyzer and pulled down hourly from the WithingsAPI
I've also built a very extensible API for it from the beginning: http://ontrack.io/api
There are very limited devices available to track data though.
Appreciate the feedback :)

After the OP made his first blog post about it [1], I've considered making one for myself too. But I'm open to being convinced otherwise.
