We used to use a similar tool in QA. Often when you accidentally reproduce something - especially something rare - you don't even realize it happened until it happened and then you can't remember what you did to produce it. Being able to look back even just a few minutes can save you hours of attempting to figure out what the magic was.
Now that I'm a developer, I often get into the flow and find myself knee deep in some work, but I forget to write notes about what I was doing. Coming back the next day, I often can't remember what issue I ran in to or how I fixed it. Having a quick way to review what I did the previous day is very helpful.
I can see a lot of potential uses for this technology, but I'm quite wary of any service that involves sending all of that data to some third party. Regardless of how much they might swear they won't use it for anything else, every company eventually sells your data for extra profit - it's just too tempting.
