rseven-5Rseven came up with software that lets you turn your cell phone into a “lifecaching” device. That is, it becomes the personal recorder of everything you do.

In a demo at this week’s DEMOfall 09, the company showed it can record your movements via the phone’s location-based technology, record your text messages, photos, and even your phone calls.

Here’s our view interview with Hisyam Halim, chief executive of the company. He talks about what you can do with Rseven, the privacy implications of the technology, and how you can analyze what you do with your time.

Dublin, Calif.-based Rseven is looking for funding and is working on its iPhone and Android versions next. (video editing by Alexa Lee of Ooyala)

XLV, Lerida, 1658", imagines an empire where the science of cartography becomes so exact that only a map on the same scale as the empire itself will suffice. "[S]ucceeding Generations… came to judge a map of such Magnitude cumbersome... In the western Deserts, tattered Fragments of the Map are still to be found, Sheltering an occasional Beast or beggar..."
