This was a toolbar which allows athletes to upload their Garmin Forerunner data directly to the web - now the best way to do this is www.RunSaturday.com :-)

Forwards motion? (Well, sideways!)

OK... so after a long long time in the wilderness, I've got things up and running again :)

Briefly:
  • I've got code up and running here under IE8
  • I've got imports working in Firefox for Windows
  • I've got a plugin inside Firefox (lots of XPCOM stuff)
However, I've also had a different thought...
  • because of requests for things like Mac and Linux support, because of requests for 405 and 50 support, because of requests for things like Chrome support.... would people rather I actually worked on integrating the Garmin Communicator toy instead? I think I could get this working quite quickly...
What do you reckon? Has anyone been using the Garmin Connect type functionality within web browsers - does it seem to work OK so far? Let me know what you think - I'll put something together...

(also - very cheekily - if anyone thinks that they may have a 405 spare at some point - just for a week or so - then please let me know - it'll help me to try testing with it)
