Quantified Self Toronto Show & Tell #29

Thanks to Totem.tc (http://www.totem.tc/) for hosting. The venue is a beautiful second floor atrium with lots of natural light and awesome architecture, must be seen to be believed.

Quantified Self is "self-knowledge through numbers". Tracking, feedback, goals, little self-improvement projects, come share your experiences using technology for personal growth. Tracking your mood with your smart phone? Recording your workouts, diet and/or weight? Using a fitbit, zeo, or heart-rate monitor? Personalized medicine experience? Whatever it is, come share with others and learn from their experience as well. Or come just to watch - sharing not required if you're just curious to see what this is about!

Everyone is welcome. I promise: that means you, please come. If you're even a little but curious based on what has been said so far, you should come out, we're all friendly here :-)

If you are presenting, here's a quick tip: The three Quantified Self Questions are: What did you do? How did you do it? What did you learn? Remember, sharing is important and valuable even if you share your failures - you never know when someone else will be trying the same thing and you can help them avoid the mistakes that you made! We want to hear your personal stories, and that means really human things like struggling with motivation, experiencing setbacks, and hopefully, every so often, having a flash of insight! We're very informal - if you want to bring slides or props, that's cool too, but nothing more than yourself is required.

Meeting structure:

7:00-7:30pm: informal networking, show & tell sign-up on whiteboard
7:30-7:45pm: Eric will introduce QS, and then we'll do our quick "three words about yourself" introduction round
7:45-9:00pm: show and tell, people give brief (10-20 minute) presentations with extensive Q&A from the crowd

Thanks to Totem.tc (http://www.totem.tc/) for hosting. Totem helps organizations build trust through content, services, and experience. Through more than fifteen years of pioneering work with some of North America’s best-known brands, we have come to understand the challenges they face as the landscape around them transforms beyond recognition.

We have until 10:00pm to clear the space, so there is time to chat informally after the talks. Afterward, we'll be heading over to The Jersey Giant, 71 Front St E, join us for post show & tell beer and conversation!
