Hyper personal tracking: Where’s it all headed?

I feel like you’re going to see a lot more personal tracking applications in the near future– Imagine GTD on steroids, where you’ll know everything you spend time on.

When there’s stuff like MeeTimer and Microsoft Research doing some serious inquiry into personal time tracking, you have to wonder where this is all going to end up?

Will this information be useful, or will we be in analysis paralysis of our own incompetence and inability to multitask efficiently (I say that as I Apple+tab over from my regularly scheduled project due next week…)

Check out this new one:

Skydeck unlocks the valuable information hidden in your cell phone bill. Turn that boring list of numbers into a rich history of your conversations with friends, colleagues, customers, and other contacts. And since we also track your minutes and text messages, you’ll avoid overage fees and never get a surprise bill again.
