I'd like to suggest you add integration for the Withings Scale to MFP.
The Withings scale automatically transmits my weight and % BF to their server when I weigh myself. I try to do that daily. When I go to MFP I then have to enter that weight. Would be nice if this happens automatically.
They have a REST API and a means for pushing updates to your app from theres.

They also have an affiliation program that could help support the site.
I've just come over from Daily Burn and that is the only feature they have you don't that I use. It isn't enough to make me go back, but it might influence someone.
So far I'm loving MFP.

People have been asking for this for a very long time. I have had an mfp account for five months but have not switched over from daily burn yet because there is no withings integration. Mfp blames this on withings, but honestly it is an API that can be used by anyone. I think it is more likely that they have a sweetheart deal going with the fitbit people, and are for some reason restricted to supporting the aria scale. This would only hurt mfp in the long run since I doubt the many withings users are itching to run out and buy another wifi scale. Whatever the reason, there is a troubling lack of response and transparency on the part of mfp regarding this issue.
