If you could have a small unobtrusive device on you which would record everything you did 24 hours a day... would you want one?

Yes, as long as it didn't make me look fat.

O_o

Oops. Too late.

Actually it wouldn't make you look anything, the idea is it would record what you see.

I would see myself in mirrors! And...windows.

Only if it wasn't legally admissible in court and you couldn't subpoena it. :)

I've been watching too much CSI, L&O, etc.

I think those two things might go together some how. ;)

I think that it would be a very interesting concept. As someone who has a mother with MS and a crappy memory, I think there could definitely be a benefit from it. It would also help with all of those moments when you wished that you had a video camera at that moment.

I think the thing I remember being the most difficult about this was you'd really want it to be searchable which would require some pretty hefty image recognition AI.

Maybe Google Life Recorder Index? ;)

Ok, several comments here :
* Rewinding to find where you've misplaced something would be *totally* worth it.

* Not entirely sure re-watching sex is as much fun as having it.

* What are you trying to say about 80's tv shows? (currently working his way through Buck Rogers. Well. Slowly)

* I think you've hit upon the next wave of reality TV for sure. CelebCam! :D
