night over Texas
“When the railroad trains moaned, and river-winds blew, bringing echoes through the vale, it was as if a wild hum of voices, the dear voices of everybody he had known, were crying: “Peter, Peter! Where are you going, Peter?” And a big soft gust of rain came down.
He put up the collar of his jacket, and bowed his head, and hurried along.”
― Jack Kerouac, The Town and the City

We pushed a new build last night to our production servers that addresses what many users have been asking for. You can explore the data without logging in. If you want to save the charts you’ve created you’ll need to login. We use rpx, which makes it easy to choose an existing system you already have an account for, or create a new openID just for the site.
You can find out more about the project and my role on this project here.
