my concern is the logging of the consulting of the log
the log is for remembering, looking up
so when you look it up, that is logged also right?
my dlcs and dlww as here all abt how I get to things and the multiple paths leading out fr there (like my issues with ChooseYrOwnAdv - want to keep track of all the simultaneous alternatives as they split further and multiply)
*and* then I note when & why I go looking for sth and find it...
wh is fine, I guess.
what concerns me about this? ~recursiveness? that the logging itself becomes part of the life that is logged
(and if did not, then why log at all? unless you are going to consult it. and if you are, that's part of the log)

idleThinK [v3]: a faint blue idea of order | troubled thoughts on the train 24.02.2007:
A while back, vis-a-vis Borges, I wrote about lifelogging without knowing there was a name for it. Today I realize it was prescient [ChronicleHigherEdu discussn of article: On the Record, All the Time] -- people have been experimenting with lifelogging, going around with audiovisual cameras slung around their necks like slack nooses [ChronicleHigherEdu article: On the Record, All the Time], recording every minute of their lives. Apparently scientists have been talking about doing this for years [Atlanic.com VBush article].

so, her blog looks cool too. and look at her other dlcs marks and tags, eg lookingahead ...
