Quantify Self

Movement started in 2008. Here's the official site and Twitter feed. This movement have been covered by:

I'm using this blog to record my experiments in quantifying my life. As for now the main items I'm quantifying are my daily activities, my consumptions and the resources I've used.

Every month I will record my movies consumption. I found this is necessary as I do have a bucket list of movies that I want to watch. I've been recording since June 2011. Currently I'm using Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer as a gauge of quality of movies I'm enjoying. If the movie is somehow scored below 50% of the Tomatometer, I would need to justify myself why I choose that as an entertainment option. After enough data is gather I perform some analysis and hope to gain insights on my choices.  My post on movie consumption:
