A tiny camera (size of a mosquito) should be hovering over our head all the time. It should capture entire day's event on our actions and also it should capture how people around us respond to them (capturing body language, words, actions etc). End of the day you play the video and understand what went
well and areas where you need to improve. Helps to identify areas where you feel disgusted about yourself and areas where you feel proud
Smallest flying camera we've got yet.

[ravi] - you're new here so welcome. |

Watching the video could take awhile, even if you
were to fast-forward through the boring parts, like
the watching of the previous day's video, for
example. But the idea shows thoughtfulness and
creativity. Bun from me. |

"Helps to identify areas where you feel disgusted about yourself and areas where you feel proud", surely much of what it'd capture would show what others perceive about you (their expressions / reactions you'd otherwise have missed), and perhaps some of what you might find you do, which you find disgusting in others. Either way, I think if you were so self analytical, (and by extrapolation, others were too) the World would be a very dull and even more self-centred place.

Oh, and hey, welcome to HB |

Not a bad idea. As you describe it, it's like a high-
tech diary. I prefer to interpret it thus: since
ordinary social interactions, coupled with ordinary
social skills, normally serve the same function as
this idea, what niche does it fill? Presumably,
would be useful to people short on either social
interactions or social skills, as a means to remedy
those defects. Would also be useful to people
who're unwilling to rely on the opinions of others
in deciding what, about themselves, merits pride
or disgust. But in practice, some of those people
belong to the first group. |

The idea as a self-improvement tool is valid; I've often thought of doing that sort of thing myself, but there's no such thing as a mosquito camera. |
|
| |
However usually people take videos of themselves, not others since we have, you know, eyes and ears already... and I'm not sure what you're doing such that the descriptives you're looking for would be "disgusted" or "proud". |
|

Mightn't it be more effective just to use the Point of View Gun? Won't work on women though... |
|

I have a vague memory of hearing of some thing like this being done to help people with a defective memory, If memory serves. Except it was a rather large pendant, and took still pictures in response to changes in the scene it was looking at. “Size and costs fall and complexity increases. It's just a matter of time.” |

Eventually, people will stop having cameras. There'll
just be a continual recording of everything,
everywhere and you'll be able to pick what you want
to view, and from what angle and what time. |

True, [MB]. Except you won't bother, your AI will pick them for you. Then you won't bother to look at them either, so your AI will look for you and will show them to other peoples' AIs, and the AIs will have a right good time laughing at the photos... |

De l'Isle-Adam was right, apart from a minor spelling
error: "Vivre? Les servers feront cela pour nous." |

and then some scientist will create a programmable light nimbus to surround you such that it emits the vision of all you should be to your surroundings |

I thought that was couturiers? Or are they the ones
