Lifelogging.......Life what??!!!
Morris Villarroel logs every tiny part of his life. He started in February 2010 with the aim to gather 10 years of data about himself and his lifestyle and he takes notes on what he's doing in notebooks every 15 to 30 minutes. He is a Lifelogger!
Now the aim of this is to examine the ways in which we use our time and create more effective time management but I do question whether all this time and effort could be better spent living rather than logging!
So far, Morris has got through 307 notebooks and all this information is indexed within an Excel spreadsheet.
One interesting result of this is that he feels life has slowed down and time doesn't pass so quickly.
He can look back at any point in time, down to the last hour and tell you exactly what he was doing. I bet he's a bundle of fun at dinner parties!!
At 53, I'm all for slowing time down, but is this really the way to go about it?
An interesting read from the BBC Worklife series. Don't forget to write down the time spent reading this!!!
