Total Recall review in Canadian Business includes poll result

 

Canadian Business reviewed Total Recall, and report on an interesting poll:

Life logging won’t be for everyone. Of the nearly 5,000 people who responded to a poll on TechCrunch, a leading tech industry blog, 51% said they wouldn’t wear a life recorder. But almost as many said they would. Those who do will find themselves at the forefront of a whole new way of living — and it’s one that will never be forgotten.
