About 8 months ago [Colin Devroe](http://cdevroe.com) of 9 Rules fame started a ‘community diet’ for all in the blogging community to join and gain motivation from. Shortly thereafter [Kristin](http://wiphey.com) wrote an HTML progress bar for all to use. I immediately had the idea to turn it into a plugin for everyone to use. I have been using it, in some form, on this site for wuite some time now. I have been pretty lazy about finishing it though. I got bored the other night and just knocked the rest of it out. It will track progress beween two whole or negative(no floating point) numbers up or down. It’s pretty basic right now but I have a few things in mind to add as well. You can download the plugin [here](http://irgeek.net/projects/progress-bar/). Widget coming soon!
