Hi,
Well as per our last newsletter, I am starting to write and install some really cool new site features. Some of you will be aware that I shutdown the site for 30mins today to install some new software. So what was it?
The TrekFuel Database
We have had many requests for real trek fuel usage information so I wrote a new system that allows you to enter your fuel usage and distances for each of our trek notes. The system then takes your entered data and builds the table of fuel requirements for each trek. It uses a collection of averages for each engine size and fuel type. This system is currently only linked to our trek notes and relates to the specific trek you select (similiar to TrekFeedback). You will be able to see your results in real time and the system will even calculate your Km/L and L/100Km.
So dig out your fuel books and start entering the data into the TrekFuel Database. Access is via the TrekNotes, pick the trek you wish to update and you will see the icon to update the TrekFuel.
We will also soon add the ability for you to enter your highway usage and non trek specific data however we want to get the trek notes updated first.
Hope you like it and as always any problems let me know directly at david@itbeyond.com.au or post here for the next few days.
Have Fun
David
