Daytum bills itself as a tool to help you “collect, categorize, and communicate your everyday data.” It’s large-print, user-friendly interface is available for free with a limited number of options, and is virtually unlimited with its “plus” features for $4/month. Data can be entered online, or via mobile app (including Twitter!) and entered into categories, different pages, and with a vast array of colorful, easy-to-read charts. Use the data to track job leads, percentages of people responding to certain posts, or even sales. The data, hosted on Amazon’s enterprise servers, is secure and can be downloaded to a CSV file whenever you like. Direct linking is available for each “display” (data collection) or “statement” (blog-type post), and all content is aggregated on your Daytum homepage. You can open a free account and make some fun graphs to see if Daytum is right for you. See cool examples here and here.
