[TriEmbed] Learning Curve Responses

[Chip McClelland]

To all who have taken a look at release 0.1 of my data logger reporting page, thank you.  

I have updated the page to reflect some of the detailed suggestions from Burr Sutter and republished here: http://chipmc.jsbin.com/ <http://chipmc.jsbin.com/>
	- Added better historical weather, fixed UI bug and added tool tips for the filters

Carl, I would like to spend some time with you on how to make this more robust.  I implemented this as client-side code but would certainly be interested in learning how to get someone who knows what they are doing to add server side functionality such as user access, file storage, data export and a report repository. I will catch you after the next meeting.  One question though, I now have a working (albeit limited) prototype which I can get user feedback on - why did you say it would be better to start with a wireframe or powerpoint?

Michael, thanks for the offer for help.  If you get a chance, I would like to learn more about how to follow “best practices” but, as you pointed out, this may not be too important at this point.  

Terry, Sure, I have received so much help and encouragement from this group, I would be glad to share what I have learned if it can help others.  I have not published much on the disconnected sensor so perhaps we could follow up on what might be needed to provide the content for Arduinoinfo.info - cool site BTW.

Thanks to all of you and if anyone else has the time or interest to provide feedback, here are the instructions:
	- Download a sample data set from here <http://triembed.org/blog/?attachment_id=1059>.
	- Using Chrome or Safari (not sure if Firefox will work), Go to this site <http://chipmc.jsbin.com/> where I am hosting the application
	- Find the file on your hard drive (select local time) and see if the flow from preview to refine to repot is intuitive.

All comments on usability, clarity, look and feel are welcome.   


Thanks, 

Chip
