Lifelogging with Smartphones

Life logging can be as simple as a daily photo, with a little bit of commentary around what is currently happening in your life, a daily Journal if you will. Long gone are the days when we used to keep a hand written journal entry for each days thoughts.

With the integration of the Smart Phone into our daily lives, and their 5-12 megapixel cameras which are capable of capturing full HD videos, it is no wonder people are using these devices to also record images and videos of their lives.

Top-selling smartphones, such as the iPhone 4S with its 8-megapixel camera, are now equipped with better photography capabilities. As a result, users are more likely to carry one device with them instead of two, capturing spontaneous moments with the mobile device they already carry in their pocket instead of toting along a camera.

The use of smartphones is also transforming the nature of personal photography. People no longer snap and print photos only to enclose them in dusty albums on a shelf. They e-mail pictures to family and friends, share them on Facebook, Flickr and other sites, and post them to self hosted life logging blogs.

Storing your memories is now a trend that people are already doing on a daily basis, with sites such as Facebook and Twitter, people are recording nearly every aspect of their lives, however there is a problem.

With this method (using Facebook for e.g) users have no control over the content, images and information they are posting. Facebook, Twitter and every other website that is being used by members is owned by someone else and at any stage that company could break any number of Privacy Laws and get shut down over night, you can then say goodbye to all your life's memories. The innovative solution by Legacy Websites is unique in a sense that they create a website that you own ( a Life logging website ), you have complete control over who sees the content, (usernames and passwords) and you can back-up all your information whenever you like.
