I have Torque running in the background all the time, so I don't need to even touch it and it logs all my data and automatically sends it to a server.
So the official web app at
http://ian-hawkins.com:8080/ isn't that great, but there's an alternative, here:
https://github.com/econpy/torque/
The UI of the alternative isn't that special either, but here's the thing - it uses a mysql database that you can access directly (as opposed to the official web service which doesn't let you do that).
Soo, when you have data in a mysql database and you want a nice way of crunching it, what do you do? Excel! I now have an excel spreadsheet that automatically updates with new data every time I drive my car. How cool is that!
Here are a couple of charts I made based on data from about a week of driving.
