Anything interesting you can track using this tool?

I was thinking it could be the nice mid-point between an auto-data goal, and an 100% manual one.

I was thinking of hacking something together with the time I get in bed, or glasses of water I drink.

Does anybody use the DO button?  
Can I use it to beemind?

I use it to beemind the amount of water I drink. I have a do button widget  
on my home screen with a few buttons representing the most common water  
vessel sizes I use (I beemind actual volume of water rather than number of  
glasses). It works great.

Here’s [a link to the Do Button page](https://ifttt.com/products/do/button) because IFTTT make it ridiculously difficult to discover it.
