Abstract
The breadcrumbs we leave behind when using our mobile phones-who somebody calls, for how long, and from where-contain unprecedented insights about us and our societies. Researchers have compared the recent availability of large-scale behavioral datasets, such as the ones generated by mobile phones, to the invention of the microscope, giving rise to the new field of computational social science.
