Hi,

What feels like very long time ago the guys at Skritter tried out integrating with Beeminder. I've recently gone back there and seen that it's really taken off, with integration with Runkeeper, Duolingo, and other popular apps. Are there any plans to get Skritter back on that list?

I use Beeminder to "beemind" my Skrittering and would love to see the two integrated. Maybe I should push the folks at Beeminder about this too.

I tweeted them both - will keep you updated!

This sounds like a task for Skritter's API. Josh is working hard on HTML5 right now, but I'm going to toss Beeminder integration onto a list of potential future projects.

I used Beeminder to get through tons of pages of the M.A. Thesis, and the daily motivation from the team over there certainly helped things A LOT. I wonder how many Skritter users actually use Beeminder... perhaps a new poll is in order.

Thanks Jake, I get that it might not be a priority with all the other things you have on the go.

If anyone is seeking inspiration, Nick's graph is still going strong two years later!

If Bethany ever fixes the super-old API that I think only I am using, just for that Skritter goal, then although I'll probably notice and prevent it from leading to my first-ever Beeminder derailment, I'll also probably update Skritter to use the new API.

... I hope Bethany doesn't read this forum.

Cheers Nick and Jake! Like Catherine I think that this would be an awesome development!

If anyone is interested, I've got a couple of manual goals running, and I would encourage people to use it even if we have to manually enter the data - it's a fantastic motivator!
