the personal," observes writer Gary Wolf. "Sleep, exercise, sex, food,
mood, location, alertness, productivity, even spiritual well-being are
being tracked and measured, shared and displayed. "First, electronic
sensors got smaller and better. Second, people started carrying

superintelligence known as the cloud." (Source:
