In the future we'll be able to make sense of all these data through simple visualizations and actually make these data useful depending on your needs and environment. Imagine being able to see how much money it cost you every time you use your tap water or take a shower? Visualizing consumption of energy will be a great help in order to stop our current massive waste. It’s only an overload because we don’t know how to manage the data yet.

our society is already experiencing information overload on a much grander scale. this will only make things much worse. do i really need to know what my body’s summary statistics?

Not on the level of monitoring my personal information (heart rate sugar levels etc), although I think this is a great idea but I'm inspired because I want to get the data from my house into a visualisation. I see this displaying things like, water and power consumption (you could even link it into you car). If it was hooked up correctly (and that shouldn't be to hard) then you could compare this to last month/week/year, which would mean that it should be a lot easier to understand and work with. You could even show usage by hour or by show for example, this would open up a lot of ways to reduce our impact on the planet and also to reduce our cost of living. I know that here in NZ over the last winter some people have had 600$ power bills (per month) and they struggled to pay them, with a read out like this then estimations could be done (easily) and they would get into this problem, could probably even be notified. I'll have to do some more research :) thanks for the inspiration. I think that the everyday visualisation idea is a real goer, actually I’m quite inspired by it.

Sorry to be critical, but the guy's house knew more about his girlfriend than he did; he jumps on his bike to go find her, instead of a quick call; and planes falling out of the sky is a daily occurrence. The world needs better scriptwriters. This couple could use a couple of cell phones for Christmas.
