Something To Smile About 
How accurate do you think the results of this tracking can possibly be? I feel like true happiness is much different than elation, which seems to be what this site measures. I am also curious to see what are the results of this study. Nevertheless, it is an interesting tool for self-reflection and self-monitoring!
Thanks for bringing this site to my attention! It seems like a fascinating idea – it’s interesting that people are actively looking for a way to keep their happiness in check. I think, in general, it’s difficult to identify true happiness in the moment. This site seems like a great tool for being more conscious about appreciating and identifying happiness in the moment – I’m definitely going to try it out!
Wow! How cool. This reminds me of new technology that psychologists are using to have patients track their feelings instead of writing it in a journal or worksheet. I think that everyone can use devices such as this one to evaluate how they feel, and learn more about their emotions. I can’t wait to try this!
