The Quantitative Self….or yes there are people worse off than I

Nothing like letting your iPad educate and inspire you whenever you’re not busy. I had my iPad propped up running TED (a great little app) while I was making lunch and it played a speech by Gary Wolf on the joys of tracking everything you do. Clip on a couple of devices and viola … you can track how many steps you take, how many calories you burn, what your sleep patterns are, how many minutes of REM sleep you get…….

So if you thought tracking your electricity usage every 2 minutes and posting it to Google was over the top….How about you heart rate and exercise levels?
