I think that tech and exercise have a tough time getting along because there is an inherent opposition baked-in. With exercise we have to get up and get out, whereas technology allows us to 'do more while staying put'. I have found that the sites that do deal with exercise are generally cumbersome and don't integrate well with my other online activities. The MyPyramid site is slow and takes forever to setup and never emails me to remind me to use it. Good stuff, keep posting. Great point Biray.
