Lifelog

[4] Steve Mann was the first person to capture continuous physiological data along with a live first-person video from a wearable camera.

[8] In 1996, Jennifer Ringley started JenniCam, broadcasting photographs from a webcam in her college bedroom every fifteen seconds; the site was turned off in 2003.

With a format similar to TV's Big Brother, Harris placed tapped telephones, microphones and 32 robotic cameras in the home he shared with his girlfriend, Tanya Corrin.

[11] In 2001, Kiyoharu Aizawa discussed the problem of how to handle a huge amount of videos continuously captured in one's life and presented an automatic summarization.

[13] After Joi Ito's discussion of Moblogging, which involves web publishing from a mobile device,[14] came Gordon Bell's MyLifeBits (2004), an experiment in digital storage of a person's lifetime, including full-text search, text/audio annotations, and hyperlinks.

Shortly after, the notion of lifelogging was identified as a technology and cultural practice that could be exploited by governments, businesses or militaries through surveillance.

They decided to forgo verbal communication during the initial courtship and instead spoke to each other via written notes, sketches, video clips, and Myspace.

[citation needed] In 2007 Justin Kan began streaming continuous live video and audio from a webcam attached to a cap, beginning at midnight on March 19, 2007.

For instance, UbiqLog[20] and Experience Explorer[21] employ mobile sensing to perform life logging, while other lifelogging devices, like the Autographer, use a combination of visual sensors and GPS tracking to simultaneously document one's location and what one can see.

Utilizing the GPS and motion processors of digital devices enables lifelogging apps to easily record metadata related to daily activities.
