A new computer software program called “MyLifeBits” documents the moments, big and small, of your daily life.

The time is not far away when you will be able to digitally capture your entire life  ? every sound, sight, phone call, everything you do–on your computer and put it all on a database the size of a matchbox for easy retrieval. Steven Cherry of Spectrum Magazine reports on Microsoft’s MYLIFEBITS project.
