New Workout Sharing Feature


This afternoon, I finished a new feature that's pretty interesting. Now, there's a setting under edit profile that lets you make your fitness logs public/shared. If you do that, your weightlifting log becomes publicly viewable via a special link.

The image above is a screenshot of what people would see if you send them your 'fitness profile' link. Currently, it's only for weightlifting, but I'm sure it will be expanded to include diet and cardio before long. I doubt if most people would be comfortable sharing their measurements publicly, so most likely you'll be able to pick and choose which logs you want to share (if any). This sharing option is turned off by default for all users.
It's nice to see a vision come together, and this new feature takes OpenFitness.net another step closer to the vision of open-ness I originally had when creating Open Fitness.
