Very quickly, cool new tools are coming to market to help measure and share your health vitals. Want to track your weight loss? Withings is a new scale that can tweet your weight or post it as a status update on Facebook so your friends can share in your progress. Want to sleep better? Zeo is a sleep monitoring system that tracks your sleep effectiveness and suggests ways to improve your sleep. Want to know how many calories you are burning? Fitbit is clipped onto your clothing and tracks your steps taken, distance traveled and sleep quality. These are just the beginning.
Having data is one thing, but data shared becomes news. And news is cool. People like news. People like to talk about the news, especially when the news can make a difference in the world around them. So make some news and make the world a better place.
