This blog post is not a good quantified self post. A self quantified post should at least details the goal of what he's trying to accomplish, what intervention he's taking, and if he achieves his goal in the end. Otherwise, the information is just a curiosity.
Even my incomplete self-quantified post at http://kibabase.com/articles/notes-and-thoughts#self-quantification http://kibabase.com/articles/notes-and-thoughts#self-quantif... contains information about the intervention I am taking(walking 10K steps) and my goal(achieving a BMI of 24.9 or weight of 159 pounds).
- karli 14y agoDo you always need to have a goal to qualify for a "good" quantified self posting? I dont think so! Maybe it is interesting for me to see what pages i surf, how long i read stuff, etc. Maybe i love to get statistics about myself? Maybe it will help me in the future? So please, dont use this as the only measurement!
- ZoFreX 14y agoHi - I noticed English isn't your first language, and just a minor style note, it's typical to capitalise "I" wherever it appears in the sentence.
- skinnymuch 14y agoYeah haha. With my recent interest in logging my own life I'm sometimes asked why or what the end goal is. Really there isn't any definitive one except to learn and self improve in any way possible.
