Join a discussion about “Tracking for Health”

January 28, 2013 By Susannah Fox Leave a Comment

“When our observations about ourselves are formally collected, rather than just remembered, it’s easier to get advice and comment, and to improve our reasoning with the help of others. ‘Remember kids, the only difference between screwing around and science is writing it down,’ said Adam Savage of Mythbusters. Technology helps us write it down.”

– Ernesto Ramirez, writing on the Quantified Self blog about “Tracking for Health.” Please join us there for a discussion of the findings!
