Hi all,
A while back I was thinking of putting out some of my plants but got paranoid because of the frost risk and left them in. Aside from buying a wireless thermometer for £30 or remembering to check the forecast every day I couldn't see a way to keep on eye on the temperature in my area to know when to bring my plants in.
Therefore I set about creating a little web app which will get the feed from weather.com and alert me when the temperature drops below a certain minimum. I'm making this a free resource, and need some testers. Knowing how lovely all of you are on these forums I was wondering if you fancied giving me hand by signing up and using the service? It's still in beta at the moment and I obviously give no guarantee at all as to its effectiveness.
The site is completely unstyled at the moment, so it looks crap, but don't let that put you off. I need to modify the email alerts to include the links back to weather.com for their pollen alerts etc, but otherwise it's ready to go.
So, if you could, sign up at FrostAlert: Free weather alert and leave any comments or suggestions here and I'll endevour to fix it up. Don't post the link or pass it on just yet, as it still isn't ready for a full release.
