DAYTUM is a new tool, in beta, that allows you to start “collecting and communicating your daily data”. Because we’re not interested in what large groups of people are doing or thinking anymore, it’s all about breaking it down… way down.

Wanna measure how often you have left-overs for lunch, instead of a burger? How about comparing how often you take the bus versus walking versus flying a magic carpet to your destination?

Daytum can help with all these things. It works by providing a simple interface for you to update simple statistics. Or you can update while on the go using Twitter and some straightforward commands. Unfortunately I was not able to access the beta, so I can’t comment on how well it works, but it’s an novel concept and I can see this becoming popular with the Twitterati… not only do they want to tweet about their thoughts, with Daytum they can let the world know detailed stats on the day to day.

Of course this would eventually lead to amazing amounts of data on users… 80% of people that drink tea prefer this brand of beer, 45% of people that watch this movie, eat leftoveres in the mornings, etc.

Daytum, hurry up and give me my damn beta account. Please
