Think of it as a sitemeter

for your phone. It shows patterns in your calling.

Who calls you the most,
how long do you spend on the phone with them,
most frequent dialed calls,
what times do they call,
where are the calls coming from [show how far-reaching your network really is]?

How often does my mom call in a day/week/year?

Is there a way to store text conversations online, like g-mail? I hate deleting that shit. I'm losing history.

Give me someplace to put it.

Maybe this is good for that 'My Top Five' shit, because you've got statistical evidence to back up who your real-deal motherfuckers is.

This same idea could apply to instant messanger. Similar to last.fm. Who you talked to the most all-time, this week. Who yo' new friends is.

Shit.

this is cool. we thought about something like this at r/ga last summer when we were trying to figure out the social web thing for the workplace. usually they'd do a survey every year to see who everyone was talking to and working with. but a more real time solution we thought of was just checking their emails, IMs, meeting confirmations and phone calls.
