A fun idea. I've been playing with all sorts of ideas for static websites and trying to figure out ways to make them feel more "live". I was wondering about the heartbeat updates and replaying the data in "real-time" the next day is a really nice touch and allows a single deployment a day.

Right now the HR is showing 48 bpm, so this has the fun side effect of demonstrating that the author is in pretty good shape.

Heh, my personal blog has exactly the same thing for a while. I always wondered if I died would a reader know before anybody IRL would?

Looove your kitten... How could I make one? I'm basically asking permission before I go raid your elements (inspect site)

I know it's based on the author's pulse.. it'd be fun to base it on the host! Being hammered by HN would quicken that pulse a bit ;)
