Abstract

Smart phones and pervasive computing technologies enable the vision of all-about diaries: tools for recording, in a browsable and machine-processable format, the everyday activities and events of people, communities, objects and places. Diaries oer a wealth of opportunities for consumers and industries. Yet, while proposals exist indicating promising approaches to implement parts of them, several challenges still have to be faced to produce fully-edged working systems. In this paper we discuss opportunities and technologies that enable such diaries to be created. Then, we present a prototype of a diary based on location data.
