The goal of lifelogging: to record and archive all information in one’s life.

Lifelogging, An Inevitability

This includes all text, all visual information, all audio, all media activity, as well as all biological data from sensors on one’s body. The information would be archived for the benefit of the lifelogger, and shared with others in various degrees as controlled by him/her. Some form of this total recall is inevitable, at least for some people. Partial recall from partial recording seems inevitable for the rest.
