This is an interesting excursion into the ways we can keep track of ourselves through the things we post online. This post makes me think of Anil Dash's short commentary arguing that personal blogs are where tech news happens. I've always wondered what my timeline would look like if I were able to combine photos, blog posts, presentations, videos, maybe even some emails, etc., all in one comprehensive timeline. It would need to use something like an IFTTT gizmo, says Levine. I've been using IFTTT for many years now but have found it a bit glitchy, and it costs new users too much money. Levine posted today about Make; I have yet to try it but it looks like an interesting way to combine data from different services.
