Background

The 21st century is the century of information and data. We produce data at alarming rates, most of which goes to shadowy companies and governments, who use it in an attempt to sell us random crap.

A requirement for this list is that you do not need to manually input a lot of data, so this list will not cover nutrient tracking or similar, as this is often quite labour intensive.
