I seriously disagree with his assertion that his PHP page is more dynamic than what Weather Cat provides out of the box.
I guess I can't really compare his and what WC offers "out of the box", since I don't think I've ever used that option. On the other hand, the only way I could say his site is "dynamic" is to point out that, technically speaking, it is; the info on it does change without his direct need to do anything. Whether it's
better than anyone else's is a judgement call, in my opinion.
I'm not big on spreadsheet displays of pure data, as a matter of fact, I think it is simply boring!
Closest I get is a simple two column display of max/min statistics for today, on the 'home' page and similar displays for yesterday, this week, last week, etc. There is only the data for the commonly reported items; temps, humidity, pressure, wind. I've not had a PWS for much over a year, but I don't plan on having data displaying for all the years I have left on this planet...
And then there is the impossibility of viewing vast amounts of data on a mobile phone without wearing off the screen protector from swiping left/right/up/down...
"Just the facts, ma'am."
Perhaps we can encourage Mr. Snell to get the VP2 by supplying him with some of the places that offer less expensive prices. His email addy is on the
six colors About page.
edit: I sent a link to the RainmanWeather.com to Mr. Snell. He replied almost immediately with a "Thanks" as well as a bit more explanation abut the code behind his site.
