The Pulse

On Monday we will release the Canadian version of the Movement Tracker -- which we're calling "The Pulse". The idea is that you "check the pulse" for information about how you're movement is going, that is, who's involved, to what degree, and in what structure. I think it's a pretty catchy name that one of our other ops people came up with.

For this release, we're focusing on the profile editor and the bible study scheduler. We actually disabled a number of other features from the international version of the movement tracker, in order to make what we do release really solid. I think that's a smart move. Over the two weeks we've really been testing it out and polishing the site up, and I'm happy to say we're ready to release on time!

I'm actually going for a week of vacation this coming week. I'm going to be doing youth camp counseling at Ryerson Camp. I'm not sure how restful that will be but I love counseling and camp so at least it should prove as something different! No computers or internet for a week!

Oh, I'm also tracking my development from a technical perspective on this blog.

  1. Considering my nearly "umbilical" connection to technology, I find that the most restful times are the times I spend away from it.

    Per example, the recent deletion of facebook, twitter, and other life-draining social networks. Not necessarily forever but for the time necessary for me to sincerely REST.

    ..and while I envy you're technological disconnect greatly, I envy the impact you'd be making in kids lives all the more.

    super rad. :)
