The Data-Driven Life
theodp recommends a somewhat long and rambling article by Wired's Gary Wolf, writing in the NY Times Magazine, on recording and mining data about your personal life. "In the cozy confines of personal life, we rarely used the power of numbers. The imposition on oneself of a regime of objective record keeping seemed ridiculous. And until a few years ago, it would have been pointless to seek self-knowledge through numbers. But now, technology can analyze every quotidian thing that happened to you today. 'Four things changed,' explains Wolf. 'First, electronic sensors got smaller and better. Second, people started carrying powerful computing devices, typically disguised as mobile phones. Third, social media made it seem normal to share everything. And fourth, we began to get an inkling of the rise of a global superintelligence known as the cloud.' And the next thing you know, exercise, sex, food, mood, location, alertness, productivity, even spiritual well-being are being tracked and measured, shared and displayed."

I plan to be Blank Reg
Blank is beautiful!
glad you said blank. black definitely is not so beautiful except in rare cases. the poofy wooly nappy hair and the bigass flat almost jew-like noses just don't do it for me and neither does the greasy hair. you gotta think about "black is beautiful" like all other marketing. if it was really so beautiful they wouldn't need to keep telling you how beautiful it is and make a catch phrase out of it.
Black people like Charlie Brown cartoons?
