3/ I'm not sure why, but I always read "moves in a small circle" as "traverses small, infinite loops." And, I wanted to see my geographical ones. Experimentally, it did not disappoint; personally, it did.

4/ In a world full of possibilities -- even locally -- I followed painfully boring and repetitive paths. But, again, these were spatial paths made obvious by a GPS app... ...just think of the abstract, intellectual ruts that I can't even perceive.

I want a tool for both spaces, inspired by the physical! Like, if I had time right now, I'd develop an app called "Coverage" where the game would be to accumulate GPS wanderings over your locale.

I think careful twitter usage *can* help with the intellectual ruts and fashions though. Select people so that you collide with things your "guided intellectual work" wouldn't have.
