Happy New Year from Lifehacker [Announcements]
The Lifehacker staff is off today recovering from a champagne hangover and writing down our 2009 resolutions. We'll be back tomorrow on our regular posting schedule. Happy New Year!
Weightbot Tracks Your Weight with Pretty Graphs, Friendly Interface [Featured IPhone Download]
iPhone/iPod touch only: Tonight we go on our last major holiday binge. Tomorrow we start to work at shedding the extra holiday heft. Weightbot is here to help.
The Weightbot iPhone and iPod touch application is a simple, attractive application designed to track your weight over time. As a weight-tracking tool, Weightbot stands out for a couple of reasons. To begin with, it's got a beautiful interface. Tracking your weight isn't a particularly fun activity, but Weightbot makes it seem pretty cool.
The application includes gorgeous graphs displaying your progress by week, month, and year, your information is backed up online over a secure connection, and you can set a goal weight so you can watch your weight slope toward the finish line.
If you want to prevent prying eyes from spying your weight, you can also set a passcode on the app.
The biggest catch: It's not free. It is, however, available for $1 from the iTunes App Store for a limited time, and while you can probably find countless other free options, Weightbot is one of those apps you may be more likely to use because of its great interface and feature set. If you give it a try, let's hear what you think of it in the comments. If you've got an alternate favorite tool for the job, let's hear about that, too.
