You see a detective on the TV and heβs interviewing all the suspects asking them what they were doing on the night of the murder a month ago last Tuesday night.
And on the TV, the suspects all know. Right away.
If you asked me ten years ago though, Iβd have had barely any clue. If youβre lucky itβd have been something planned in my calendar but mostly, dunno. Watching TV maybe? No idea what show. Was that a night I was in the pub?
As we all get older this problem increases Iβm told. Eventually full on senility sets in.
But what if you have already built the habit to record what youβre doing? To be able to look back and revise and review how you spent your days? An external aid as a crutch to your own forgetful brainβs cortex?
So I started this Exocortex Log over a decade ago and now I can answer: Ten years ago on Tuesday I was having dinner with the guitarist from my band and his girlfriend and they burned the pudding.
The app has been half finished and barely able to even record let alone review for most of that time, but now itβs ready enough that someone else might use it too if they want.
## Try it
Try it out: 
Accept a month of demo test data, add a few events for what youβve done so far today, look at the summary and stats tools.
No install needed, the app lives on a web page.
If you decide to start logging what youβre doing, clear the DB and start again. Maybe install it for offline use then. Maybe set a reoccurring alarm to get you into the habit of doing it. See if you find it a useful memory aid after a few weeks.
And next time a detective asks you what you were doing a month last Tuesday, maybe youβll be able to answer!
