One of the key items in Lifeblog is the synchronization – both the tracking and transferring of new objects and the synchronization of the Favorites. While Lifeblog might seem simple, we spend a lot of time discussing and working on the synchronization. It might be just a line on the feature list, or a single button or menu item, but it’s hard work to do synch.
I remember years ago I had two mobile devices and one computer. It was a disaster trying to keep everything in synch. If two-way synch is hard, imaging more than two – it’s not worth it.
I think that’s why whenever I talk about multiple phones per Lifeblog, the R&D guys flex their hands and look like they want to wring my neck.
