Joe and Lisa Betts-LaCroix on Meta-QS

April 11, 2011

Long-time Quantified Self regulars Joe & Lisa Betts-LaCroix co-present their comparison of QS to the better-studied practice of journaling, and their vision for meta-QS research: finding out whether self quantification can actually bring about desired changes in the people doing it.  In their engaging video below, they also suggest how a new age of personal enlightment could result from widespread adoption of QS. (Filmed at the Bay Area QS Show&Tell meetup on 3/24/11 at TechShop.)
