Ahahaha, this makes me happy. I've been wanting an app like this for ages and I finally made it: just something to track stuff on a daily basis, like how much money I spend or how much exercise I do.
Integrating with Facebook identity and Azure cloud data storage turned out to be a real learning exercise.
Disclaimer: I know it is ugly. It doesn't have to be pretty, it just has to be easy for me to use. I may or may not invest in prettying it up and showing nice graphs of all the things you're tracking, but for right now it's enough that it shows me what's going on.

Doubtless some of the arguments developed here will prove oversimplified, or merely false. They are certainly controversial, even among my colleagues in economic history. But far better such error than the usual dreary academic sins, which now seem to define so much writing in the humanities, of willful obfuscation and jargon-laden vacuity. As Darwin himself noted, "false views, if supported by some evidence, do little harm, for every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness: and when this is done, one path towards error is closed and the road to truth is often at the same time opened."[Darwin, 1998, 629] Thus my hope is that, even if the book is wrong in parts, it will be clearly and productively wrong, leading us toward the light. -Gregory Clark, Preface to Farewell to Alms
