Something NEW

[nsd_user663_2507]

Hey I did some programming for fun...

Copy and Paste thie following code to notepad and save it as HTML code. For instance save it as quit.html to your desktop then open it with your browser. Don't forget to change your inputs listed on the top...

Oh yea and ignore the PHP code header... It should really say JavaScript but was unavailable.

If you guys have idea to write a program that will help us quitters please let me know your ideas and we can try to paint it to reality...

Programming

Well, I'm a programmer (C#, VB.Net, VB6, T-SQL, Flash, JavaScript, etc., etc...), but I don't have the time

Your post got me thinking....I googled yahoo widgets and found a number of desktop widgets that counted cigs not smoked & cetera. Seems as though the most popular one is a German widget (Nichtraucher--sounds German to me), with 17,237 downloads; there are 3 or 4 English widgets, too.

To look at them go here: widgets.yahoo.com/search/?q...

Hey a Widget for the Desktop now that sounds like a very nice idea hey!

What will you guys like to see in a little gadget on your desktop?

For smoker:

A way to create a data graber every time you smoked then based on your consistencies in your smoking patterns suggest a time to cut a habit.

To grab data the user can manually enter it or use their cell phone with internet access or a place with internet to log their smoking times...

For quiters:

Time since stop date

money saved

time saved

health diagnosis options

Any more ideas?

Killing time hey
