I just signed up for it today (though I think I gave them the wrong referral name) :(
I think my only problem with it is that it does include /only/ water as a beverage. Other things (tea, specifically) should count, too, in my opinion. When I do my tracking for myself, I put all drinks in together. I can see the reason to separate out thinks like soda, or even juice, since they contain calories and sugars... but tea is calorie-free.
Personally, my beverages have been water, tea, and fruit juice (but only if it's 100%, and not daily by any means) for the past couple of years. It's rare that I drink soda or anything at all other than those listed. I've been drinking LOTS of water for so long now that it just seems second nature, but I certainly didn't always. After my confirmed kidney stone episode (and 2 which were unconfirmed, but had the exact same symptoms as that last one which was diagnosed), I started drinking a lot more water. I, also, never thought it would be possible, but the health scare was enough to make me do it. Now it's just habit. :)
