One really annoying thing is that I ran thru the whole story and added my habits... then wanted to save by creating a profile. Typed in my email address and preferred password. And then it stopped working. Both the buttons didn't work, clicking on the greyed-out area didn't work either. You had a great app there buddy, but just lost me and potentially many others.

(For bug tracking, I'm running Chrome 25.0.1364.58

I second that. Actually, Coursera is currently hosting a R-language class at http://www.coursera.org/course/compdata

Another thing I can suggest is to network via sites like LinkedIn. I actually got contact with another HN-poster from Brazil! And best tip: if there's no group where you live yet, you can start one!

Dear Benny, You're a developer, the design part is lacking. And it's great that you come here for advice!

The bright bg-color in your logo is distracting me from actually reading the name of your app. The iPhone itself is really slick, though the fonts and used colors aren't. Perhaps you could use googlefonts? The text you use is nice, though could use some improvement. Maybe it sounds better on a video than it reads on screen. "Yes, it's that simple" is a bit cheesy nowadays. Also, as an app user I wouldn't understand what an SVG file is for editing on a desktop. (who uses a desktop anyways, you're even targeting iOS-users only?)

Your headline is great!

If you want more input, just send me an email!

I'm open for new job opportunities in the data science/business analist field. So basically I'm not looking for a full-time developer job. I do have some project running, so I can apply my newly obtained Ruby skills.

Unfortunately I'm not in the position to take a bootcamp, since I have a fulltime job. Thus can't get more time off than 2-3 weeks in a row.

I'd love to see your list of prep work, please send it to me. My email is in my profile.

I fancy Ruby because of it's simple syntax and that in some ways it looks like PHP. I have experience with HTML, CSS and can read PHP. Also, since I know how to build static stuff - I want to learn the backend of things.

Always looking for ways to develop the company, the department and myself to the next level.

My motto is, in Dutch "stil staan is achteruit gaan" - in English: "standing still is getting behind".

Be humble, open for advice and critique. And build up a network as soon as possible. The more people you know, the easier it is to get things done. Don't forget the external network, it helps to know other product managers.

Sorry, my mistake. Just added it.

I'd use a lightly blinking notice box at the top of your screen, just below the header. Let it disappear when not clicked within 5 seconds or so. Give a teaser, with a link to take the tour around new features. Only do that when you have several that are worth the time to learn about. BTW - I'm from a marketing/sales background and just getting into IT/Comp.Sc. maybe we can learn from eachother? My email is in my profile.
