rvhaasen, you have error in your link to github. ;)
How long have you been using Xively?
Could you put a couple of words about your experience with it?

Hi Dolpheen,
I did use Pachube (as Xively) a few years ago. Recently I picked it up again. It is a quick way to get your sensordata available in the cloud. Also there are several apps that can read Xively feeds. This weekend I installed a humidity/temperature sensor in the plant incubator of my 11 year daughter. After installing a simple app on her smartphone she can easily check the status of the plants, showing only current temperature and humidity. There are other apps that can display the graphs. I have a Xively free account which works fine. There is a limit on the update frequency, but for "small scale" usage it works fine.
I updated the code in github such that it can also log the sensordata to a local file.

Thank you for the info, rvhaasen.
I see it's more an enterprise solution not for noob like me :) (anyway I wrote them an e-mail but no replay still)
