We've all heard 'You can't beat Wellington on a good day', but how do you know when it's a good day?

I've built a website that checks the weather in Wellington, compares it against a predefined set of rules to determine if it is a Good Day or not (according to me).

I was thinking of releasing it on a URL like 'canyoubeatwellington.co.nz'

Is it worth the 30 bucks or so for the domain and hosting, or do I just keep it as a fun little private project?

@Pat I love the concept, I think it could turn out to be popular.

@Pat

Obviously worth it. I have a small website which checks if it's friday on Fiji - also totally worth it.

@Pat some might like it as a widget on a device.

@keoni Yeah! Or a mastodon bot that posts once a day. Right now I'm struggling to get it working in prod... works on my machine!

@Pat Great concept! It reminds me of this one about snow in Ōtepoti, which is obviously less complex and often just says yes or no πŸ˜† isitsnowingindunedin.co.nz/

@Pat I love it. And I don't even live in Wellington any more.
