  I'd be lying if I said this exact article wasn't behind some of the ideas I've used to build my own system. This was one of the first times I've heard the term Quantified Self. Now I see "myself" as just a thing in the Internet of Things that I can track metrics on (and tell to do things) just like any other thing. Don't take me philosophically or spiritually with that statement. As a human I am trained to think of myself as more than "just a thing" and to think otherwise would be a bit morbid :) but from an architectural standpoint I don't treat my own metrics different than the rest of the 200+ devices in my IoT network.
