Groups are back!

By HeiaHeia team | Published: January 13, 2010

A popular feature from our Alpha, Groups, has just been introduced to Beta!

You can create groups for anything you like: your club, a group of friends, runners in your city, people who can’t decide if going to the gym is fun or not, … you name it! The current feature set of the groups is all about “the essentials”, we’ll be adding a few cool extras in the following days.

Next on our plate after Groups will be to take a fresh look at the “Buddy log” concept from the Alpha – a fun and visual way to compare your activity log with your friends.

Introducing HeiaHeia.com

By HeiaHeia team | Published: December 21, 2009

Welcome to HeiaHeia.com – probably the most fun web service for keeping fit!

“Heia! Heia!”, pronounced similarly to “Hey ya, Hey ya”, is a Norwegian sports chant, in our opinion the most fun yell of its kind. We wanted to call our Beta service HeiaHeia to give it a spell of positive cheering among friends.

There’s a bunch of new stuff in the Beta compared to the Alpha (Moozement.com). The user interface is all new, hopefully easy to use and understand, fast, and beautiful.

The most visible new features include:

- The home view: the home view is a “classic feed”, which pulls together all things happening in the service, and most importantly the latest training entries from you and your friends
- User levels in the profiles: your activity in the service will give you a level of rookie-bronze-silver-gold-?. Being on a higher level enables fun new functionalities.
- Weekly target: you can set a weekly activity target (# of exercises / hours) and see your current status in the meter in the middle of the top bar.
- Training log: we’ve started building a visually rich summary view to your training log. The first implemented part of this view is a “one month view”, which shows about 3 weeks in the past and one week in the future. You can also browse the view both into the past and the future. The summary view will be elaborated briefly with some key figures on your training and a set of yearly graphs.
- Training log: there’s also a quick to browse “full training log” view, which covers all your training history in the service.
- New sports: we’ve added over 100 new sports requested by the users. Not all of them have specific icons yet, but those will be added briefly.

Some Alpha features, like Groups and the Buddy Log, will come to the Beta a bit later, so please be patient.

Further development of the service will be fast: the launched version has some obvious gaps, which we’ll fill asap. After that, we’re planning to release new things about once a week.

Keep fit, have fun, and please give us feedback!

Moving to Beta soon!

By HeiaHeia team | Published: December 16, 2009

Dear users,

It is our pleasure to announce that Moozement is maturing to Beta stage within approximately a week!

The Alpha stage has been fun and a great learning experience: the service has gathered a nice amount of users & we’re especially happy about the amount of training log entries made. The experiences from the Alpha, numerous feature requests and discussions with the users have been the backbone of our Beta design process.

Good to know about the Beta:

- The name of the service will change: we’re moving to “a fun name with a sporty story”. Not that we don’t like Moozement, but we felt that the name could be more closely linked with the service. You don’t need to worry about the change: we’ll redirect you to the new domain.
- Your old login details will naturally work with the Beta and all your data created in the Alpha will be there.
- The Terms of Service will be slightly updated: we’ll be asking existing users to approve the new ToS before moving to the new service.
- Not all Alpha features will be supported from the start: we decided to launch early “with a skeleton that we’ll start building on” rather than have everything on board from the start. Please be patient…
- We’ve collected a bit of backlog of new sport requests during the past few months, but are finally looking to introduce over 100 new sports with the Beta.
- The Beta will be very much an evolving platform, with new stuff introduced and improvements made continuously: we very closely follow user feedback and ideas, so please keep them coming!

Keep on Moozing (for a couple of days still)!

Mobile Moozement

By HeiaHeia team | Published: July 1, 2009

Moozement is now available in a simplified form for certain mobile phones – just use the normal URL www.moozement.com on your phone browser. At least S60 phones and the iPhone support our mobile site, verified support for other phone platforms and browsers is on the way.

The feature set on mobile is quite limited now, but we’ll be enriching it along the way. The look and feel of the service might be a bit clumsy still on some browsers, but we’ll be fixing these issues during the coming days.

Facebook Connect doesn’t support mobile usage, so login via Facebook unfortunately does not work on mobile right now. Hopefully sometime in the near future… Also, there might be problems with Google and Twitter login pages on certain browsers, but unfortunately we cannot affect those either, as they are standard services from the respective companies.

Comment, ideas, feedback? Just send us a note at mooze (at) moozement.com!

Keep on Moozing!

First localizations: suomi and русский

By HeiaHeia team | Published: July 1, 2009

Moozement is now available also in Finnish and Russian besides the original English language version. These were obvious first choices, as we have native speakers of these languages in the team. We’re looking to introduce several other language variants in the future – so if you like the service and have skills for wordsmithing in your own language, please let us know! Especially Spanish, German, French & Italian would be interesting next steps!

There are bound to be some translation bugs or funny expressions in the new languages, so please drop us a line at mooze (at) moozement.com, if you run across something like this.

Keep on Moozing!
