(5) Record updates in the Quantified Self forum Project Logs
Do you have a question about yourself? Set it up in an A/B format, and collect data to answer your question.
Example:
Some folks are logging their project in the Quantified Self forums “Project Logs”:
We aim to ask questions and observe a change in data we’re measuring. (Or no change!) We can use data sources already supported by Open Humans, but don’t feel limited to it. Do what works for you, even if that means tracking it manually!
We’re inspired by how valuable self-experimentation can be as a method for discovery. For more inspiration, see Allen Neuringer’s decades of self-experimentation shared at the 2018 Quantified Self Conference.
We also dream about the scale-up: we want to see community-led research. But research starts with you – answering your own question is exciting! We think that’s the natural starting point for growth. A 1-pager here describes this idea in more detail.
We hope this prototyping will result in…
