As I am taking more and more onto my plate in this transition I am trying to find ways to automate what I can in my life. I have identified several areas where the technology is there. As I automate different processes I will post what and how so that others can simplify their lives.
Things I will be automating:
Finances
Paycheck
Bill payments
Credit card payments
Money into savings plans
Online presence
Cross posting to different platforms
Better organizing of email
Quantified self
I found a great site called RunKeeper that connects with my sleep tracking, food journal, and fitness apps and graphs out the metrics. I'm glad that I don't have to keep that all on a spreadsheet of my own.
I'm at a loss for what else I can easily and cheaply automate at the moment. I think my first DIY project will be an automatic cat feeder machine with Rasberry Pi. Other than that I would love some input on what to automate next.
