Google Charts Available End of March

Many users have asked for the ability to chart progress.  Luckily for the Google phone (and any web-enabled phone), we have the Google Charts API which magically much easier to use than I expected.  The tricky part was the data scaling especially since we are working with dates.  For example,  I worked out consistently for a couple of weeks and then skipped a month, I wouldn’t want the data to be displayed in equal intervals.  So how do you take dates and figure out the relative distance between them?  In this case I just converted everything to milliseconds which is pretty standard.  Although at first I tried to come up with my own way to convert dates to a number format which obviously didn’t end up working.  I have posted a link below and the chart.  Notice how the url contains all the information needed to create the chart, pretty nifty and its fast too!

Here’s a sample
