About
LifeSlice began as a simple script that would take my picture once an hour. It now can record a host of stats about your time in front of the computer.
- Webcam picture of you
- Screenshot of your monitor(s)
- Word count, character count, and backspaces.
- Mouse clicks, scrolls, and distance traveled.
- Applications used and number of switches
- Where you were, shown on a map
All of the data is viewable in a simple built-in browser. Explore some of my statistics to see. This data is stored as both a csv file and a SQLite database.
Here is a talk given at the San Francisco Quanitifed Self meetup shortly after development began.
These are the slides from that talk.
