Over the last week I have made some extra time for running, I have also taken the time to really dig into how the system works. It’s really simple actually. I have written a small program that will execute when I connect my Nano to my computer. The script will upload my nike+ data to my web server and then open iTunes to send the data off to nikeplus.com so that I can still take part in challenges on that site.
Having the ability to grab this data definately opens new doors. Hey I could start my own site that would track your data, show more graphs, even allow competitions on the site. I am doing this so that a small group of people and I can track our stats on my site without having to hammer on the nikeplus.com site because I am sure enough people start fetching the data from them and they will not be happy. If they wanted people to fetch the data from them they would have made the API easier to use than they have.
