Err, did you just agree with me? Lol.

My premise is that my life isn't that interesting, and if Github wants to track how I use their product, then sure.

Heck, if they send me a survey, and I can be bothered, I'd probably even fill it in with - this is how I use your editor, this is how you can improve it (in my opinion).

If they can just collect that information for free, with no effort on my part, sure.



...

No? I don't see how what I said agrees with you in any way.


Hmm, re-reading your earlier comment again, it actually doesn't seem to make sense after all...

Who wants to eagerly track my life? I'm confused what you mean here.

Is GitHub meant to be "eagerly" tracking my life? As far as I'm aware, and what I stated was - they seem to be mining for usage data.

It's the same way that www.github.com has GA enabled, to see what pages people go to.

Is my life more interesting that I think? =)

That would be pretty cool, but as far as I'm aware, I'm not some super-special VIP...haha.
