		<description>Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions folks, I&#039;ll certainly be feeding it all into the next iteration of the design. It&#039;s wonderful to get so much feedback and support for it, very encouraging indeed.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the link and the offer Paul. Not having the first idea about how to develop an iPhone app I might have to take you up on offer.</description>

		<description>Wow $10 for it, I&#039;ll get building now!
Thanks for the feedback Jessica, some good points and ideas in there.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s the geeky graph website you mentioned, clearly designed by the programmer:

I&#039;m up for writing some Cocoa/Objective-C and web services to get the thing working.</description>

		<description>Hi James,

really like the UI. I understand you are still evolving this too, so I support your evolutionary thinking. Location drives my weather choices and also bracketing certain times around activities. So weather updates would be good and also weather warnings somehow synced with a calendar. If it can be geo specific too that would be a bonus as it will be heavily linked to what&#039;s around me in terms of planning. How frequently would it be updated?

The graphed nature of it is a terrific way to represent weather. I can see other logical graphed overlays too. If you take the age info for instance then seasons of the year may place emphasis on pollen count, pollution snow depth etc. 

Keep plowing through though I am instantly engaged.</description>

		<description>Nice draft James.  I can see this being really useful. 

I&#039;m with both Ben and Jessica on the feedback.  Being a cyclist, I care about rain, night or day.  I want to know when a change will happen.  And max temperature.

Visually I&#039;d move the sunrise/set text labels to be little icons with times underneath that sit on the light/dark border on the image itself and remove from the screen header.

Look forward to seeing the next version (and the app!)</description>

		<description>Hi James, 

This looks great. Love the movement across the screen, and the daylight hours representation - great visual elements that I haven&#039;t seen before in a weather app.

For me though, it doesn&#039;t address the way that I get a weather forecast at the moment. (It&#039;s all me me me around here.)

I check weather in the morning and I want to know 
1. Top temperature for the day
2. Will it rain

So for me I would visually prioritise the peak temperature to be the pre-eminent piece of information on the screen. 

And from what I can see above, the rain/shine icon only appears for the current time, so if there&#039;s a downpour at 6.30pm I won&#039;t know.  Doesn&#039;t seem straightforward to accommodate the inclusion of icons that indicate rain at some point, particularly if there&#039;s multiple shower throughout the day, but I&#039;d need to know that for it to be useful for me as a weather app. 

And would the display move to the left? So it it&#039;s 6pm will my view be from noon to midnight?

I love the look of this - I keep coming back to look at it. It&#039;s the movement that gets me, I just haven&#039;t seen the visual continuum used before and it&#039;s very compelling.</description>
