Introduction
People strive to gain better knowledge of themselves by collecting information
about their behaviors, habits, and thoughts. Personal informatics systems facili-
tates the collection and reflection on personal information. This workshop brought
together researchers in a wide range of disciplines to discuss challenges and ex-
plore opportunities for HCI in the field of personal informatics. We identified tech-
nical and design issues. We discussed the benefits of reflecting on information
about different facets of one's life, such as increased self-awareness, holistic en-
gagement with life, and achievement of life balance. Key research areas include: Web http://personalinformatics.org/chi2010/
ubiquitous computing, life logging, visualizations, persuasive technologies, interac-
tion design, and the psychology of self-knowledge and self-awareness. Blog http://blog.personalinformatics.org/

Personal Informatics Challenges
Collection Reflection Collection–Reflection
Perceived cost/benefits for the user Cheaper configurable hardware Active vs. passive Creating narratives from data
Recording everything & filtering Accuracy of sensory input User vs designer perspective Motivation for collection
How to use collection tools Reliability of sensors What is the value of reflection? Difficulty of aggregating data
What is your target group? Lifetime of battery Reflection to express oneself Uses of data (e.g., productivity)
Viewing content for digital artifacts Easy to use, wearable, non-intrusive Authenticity and confrontation Experts vs. novices
Managing different data formats Real-time vs delayed Social aspects and sharing of data Creating readable visualizations?
Generalization from different inputs Local vs. remote log Going beyond personal reflection What would drive self-reflection
Differences in interest in data
