Rather than continuing to crop an image from a screen capture on a weekly basis to share the current state of my Weight Loss Project in a blog post with y’all, I’ve taken advantage of a new service the good folks at WeightChart.com are providing and have built a static web page which links directly to my daily updated chart on their site.
Links to that new page, My WLP: charted, are now found in the sidebars of my two primary blogs (Roscoe’s Dreams, and Roscoe’s Public Notes), and on the two Personal Internet Portals I’m using (my Home/About Page, and Google Profile).
As part of the process of setting the page up, I viewed in through four different browsers on two different Operating Systems: Firefox and Epiphany on Xubuntu, and Chrome and Internet Explorer on Windows XP. The page loads cleanly and is easy to view. One thing I noticed, however, on all browsers was that the very first time the page is loaded, it takes a few seconds for the big chart in the middle of the page to appear. At first there’s just a big empty box, but soon the chart is pulled from WeightChart.com and is displayed just fine. So… I’ll most likely not be putting up anymore weekly reports re: the WLP, but all the information is being regularly updated and can be seen by anybody any time at My WLP: charted.
