How about screen video capture? Rewind at 60x at the end of the day and take notes in whatever structured form you want.
It would also help to have an app that reacts to inactivity, that is you stepping away, and ask you what you did.
This works well if your day revolves around a desktop or maybe Android, but not so well with iPhone or iPad.
- pcmonk 10y agoSounds like a fascinating idea, but I suspect a video will be unmanageably large. However, a relatively low resolution time-lapse would probably be sufficient.
- DenisM 10y agoI tried, it works fine. Using screenflow on mac.
- Houshalter 10y agoYou could sample say one screenshot every minute. It wouldn't take up too much space.

- yjftsjthsd-h 10y agoI think the idea was to analyze and cull at the end of every day
- Houshalter 10y agoWell the goal was to make a video. The screenshots could be compressed into a single video file. At one screenshot a minute, and 24 frames per second; 24 hours of screenshots would give you a one minute video.
