Abstract: Methods and systems are provided that may be utilized to detect occurrence of one or more specified circumstances. A determination may be made as to whether one or more specified circumstances are detected such as responsive to one or more user actions or an occurrence of an event unrelated to a user. One or more binary digital signals may be generated to store a detection of one or more specified user circumstances in a log or memory at least partially in response to detection of the one or more specified circumstances.
