Writing apps for your TV is cool but nothing compared to Your body API. Where is the iBody appstore?

related blog post http://www.loiclemeur.com/english/2010/08/writing-apps-for-your-tv-is-cool-bu... Apps on TV are a great opportunity but nothing compared to what's coming for your body. Your body is going to become the next platform for developers to build on, you just need to open your own API. It's already happening when I use my withings scale that tracks my weight and body fat and sends it to runkeeper for my friends to see. I opened my body API.

We compare phones and computers with their hardware, performance, how you can connect to them and the apps you can run on them.

Your body is hardware: our brain, legs, hair, eyes all have different sizes and characteristics, unfortunately you can't really chose them when you get yours or "order" your children bodies.

Performance is easy to measure: weight, size, body fat, IQ, blood pressure, heart rate are all characteristics that vary from my body to yours and you can tune them depending on, for example how you work out and what you eat. What you can do with the calories you burn is somehow similar to what your iPhone can do one one battery charge.

It's pretty basic stuff I guess, but I think it will help you to interpret the signs your body is giving you. Of course you have to choose yourself if you want to act upon the information you are given, but it can become very useful I think.

Very interesting thoughts! I did a campaign when I was in school on the negative sides of excess alcohol consumption, and how drinking water can help you have a better day after. The idea I came up with was to give people a tool that used your bodys API (electrolytes in this example) to let you know when your body is starting to get dehydrated. So it tells you when you are dehydrated, and suggests you to have a glass of water.
