Know thyself
Ian Li, Jodi Forlizzi, Anind Dey · 2010
People strive to gain better knowledge of themselves by collecting information about their behaviors, habits, and thoughts. Personal informatics systems can help by facilitating the collection of personal information and the reflection on that information. These systems satisfy people's innate curiosity about themselves and encourage holistic engagement with one's life. Development of such systems poses new challenges in human-computer interaction and opens opportunities for new applications and collaborations between diverse disciplines, such as design, life-logging, ubiquitous computing, persuasive technologies, and information visualization.
