Just my various thoughts on my main areas of interest: mind, brain functions, consciousness, technology, travel, food, hamburgers, wine, champagne, high-end hotels, frequent flyer programs, credit card programs, cheap philosophy (the kind that you would not spend money to read) etc... It's all written in English by a French culture shifter living in France. This blog also features hamburger photography, food porn & absurdity. It may be offensive to intellectuals & aesthetes.

Augmented & Time-Warped Check-Ins
All Foursquare, Gowalla, Whrrl, Yelp, Plyce etc... players out there, I invite you to start a new trend: create spots of long-gone places in your city. You will help other users travel through time and experience Augmented & Time-Warped check-ins when they see these long-gone spots pop up in the list of places that they can check in. They will look around them and smile, thinking about those long-forgotten places.
Just a simple thing to do to remember the past and how folks used to live before smartphones, all thanks to the use of smartphones themselves!

The Legion Of eXtraordinary Dancers (LXD)
This is one my favorite TEDTalks! The way these people dance is just out-of-this-worldish. They give us the eerie impression that they are able to manipulate matter, energy and time through their flawless skills. This probably is the exact opposite of Theoretical Physics but it gives us a deep understanding of how first-hand experience can be misleading. Nobody would indeed think that what is presented here is actually possible to achieve and yet, the proof is right there in front of our eyes! Enjoy it!

Burger King Might Be Coming Back To France
Rumor has it that Burger King might be coming back to France! Their last restaurant in France had closed down in 1997. This Second Coming of the King in France might fulfill my wildest dreams!
If this were to come true, I wouldn't have to use the wormhole that I discovered many years ago. This anomaly in the fabric of the space-time continuum allows me to be at a Burger King in the USA after a 40 mn car drive from France (granted, it's weird that they don't speak English there and that everything is written down in German).
Let's all hail the King when he comes back to France!
Update: this rumor was unfortunately fake.
