It's a challenging balance to create a system with the right limitations, that still provides as sense of openness. A really great and thoughtful article, Jodie!

I will look for the Quantified Self Group you mention, it sounds interesting; any links are most welcome too. And funny you mention 'nudge', I got it recently and am reading it at the moment; very much the same ball-park. Thanks again for your comments. Cheers, Jodie Hi Kare

Reminds me of the Quantified Self group to which i belong. It is a fast-growing movement that might interest you... was covered in On the Media on NPR this past weekend. Also related books that seem to complement the ideas here are Nudge, Sway, Tell to Win (on purposeful narrative) and Paradox of Choice. As a former WSJ journalist who's had a long-time passionate interest in why we do what we do and how places affect us - including storyboarding a place or event to alter behavior I am delighted to find this nugget of a community.

The issue of whether helmets have in-fact reduced the number of injuries since their introduction, or just reduced the number of cyclists, is a pretty hot topic at the moment in Australia; especially with the introduction of the bike share systems that are in place in Melbourne (...and I think planned for Sydney too). I personally believe that the need to wear a helmet for casual biking has turned people off riding a bike. This is my personal opinion mind you - but the data I showcased appears to support that hypothesis. My thoughts are that the need to use helmets for casual biking is turning many people off using the bike-share system in Melbourne - one of the main issues is that no one carries a helmet around, so it is a real barrier to use. There are other issues I see around wearing helmets that are largely superficial, but I think they also impact. Why do think this way? I look to several places in Europe that don't have these type of laws around helmets, yet have high use of bikes in urban spaces, and low incidence of injury. The case for reconsideration of helmet laws in Australia for specific types of bike use is a a strong one I believe. Interested in others thoughts out there... Cheers, Jodie hi all,
