Well frankly earlier the concept just sounded like a waste of time to me ad only people with a lot of &amp;#39;faltoo&amp;#39; time do it but it was a movie that changed my thoughts on the subject. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;The name of that movie is the &lt;a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0364343/"&gt;&amp;#39;Final cut&amp;#39;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and the main concept shown in it was about recording every moment of one&amp;#39;s life through&amp;nbsp;memory chips implanted in the brain so that  &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;each and every thing a person sees &amp;amp; hears is recorded in that chip and when he/she dies, others can&amp;nbsp;literally see the story(movie) of his/her life.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a title="The Final Cut" href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0364343/photogallery" name="poster"&gt;&lt;img title="The Final Cut" height="138" alt="The Final Cut" src="http://ia.imdb.com/media/imdb/01/I/21/80/78m.jpg" width="100" border="0"&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;So i figured...the next best thing to the concept is a blog. One can add videos,pics&amp;nbsp;and/or audio to a blog. So the next time u feel like revisiting a moment in your life at a time when u dont remmembr it as clearly as you would like to or when u would like to recall a historic/personal event in your own opinionated words, your thoughts&amp;nbsp;on a&amp;nbsp;subject and how u felt about it...well now u can always go back to that particular date in the archives section of your blog and ENJOY!  &lt;img
