Thanks for the clear writeup, have you seen: Exhibit where can use a google spreadsheet as the data source. This means you can use a form to gather the data, I did a wee test getting twitter folk to add info to the form. Exhibit does the hard work.

Wow, CogDog, again you’ve shown me the light. I never new that Google provided a persistent URL for spreadsheet data. Not only does this allow you to set up a site so that non-coders never have to worry about code (when the only dynamic content is data), but it also allows you to do your data manipulation in a spreadsheet rather than in a script, which to my mind is much clearer (more visual anyway). Thanks for the writeup.
