tofumatt

• Reviewed the Firefox sheriff app (Ruby/Sinatra web app) -- my thoughts are captured in this bug. Basically: I think we'll need to do a re-write here; there seems to be a number of bugs out-of-the-gate.
• Mostly worked on Input, including finishing a new mobile dashboard which is pretty cool.
• We're having troubles with Input on the staging server (it's going crazy with CPU usage) so a few of us are trying to track that problem down and fix it. It's affecting other staging sites, or at least was yesterday :-(

Best thing to put bacon on? Obviously: bacon.
