Quantified Self

Time With Audible

The above image shows my listening pattern for audio programming, mostly books, listened to in the Audible app.

As I recall from previous summers, listening time is greatly reduced. During the summer there is much more ongoing interaction with the people I work with making audio programming harder to consume. My expectation is that come September, when I resume mostly working alone, the time I spend with audio programming will return to around 30 hours a month.

Elapsed Time: Quantified Self or Better to Quantify Someone Else: Can We Improve Ourselves By Mimicking Others?

Elapsed Time: Quantified Self or Better to Quantify Someone Else: Can We Improve Ourselves By Mimicking Others?: “However, I wonder if we’re focusing on the wrong idea. Instead of tracking us as individuals, what if we used this technology to mimic someone who is already doing it right? Train like an athlete, eat like a nutritionist.”

Interesting questions. Time will tell if someone can take this idea, show success and grow a community around it.
