Interesting concept but what is the realistic likelihood of a person religiously logging into a computer or mobile devices and recording every dose of medicine they ever take and for how long? I know I won't. Perhaps this concept could create a demand for a new product. How about a pill bottle or dispenser that sends an update via local wireless (Bluetooth for example) to your electronic device, every time you remove a pill from it including the kind of pill? Kind could be based on where in the container, shape, weight, etc. Perhaps pills could be bar coded or edible rfid chips could be attached. Then again a watch or an alarm in it just serves fine as a reminder, in case I am forgetful and one of the those weekly pill boxes with daily compartments serves to insure I take all my current day's medication. Sometimes simpler is better.
