PROXIMITY WARNING
So there's this app for Android called "Layar" which is one of the newfangled "reality browsers" that uses your camera + geographical locations to display information you choose.
It's actually kinda like a tricorder. I mean I can find wikipedia entries about things just by looking at them through my camera.
Anyway, I had the "tweet" layer on. It shows any geotagged tweets in the radius that I chose. I had it set to 1.5 miles. So I was reading tweets posted relatively close to my bedroom. And as I turn around in circles, all of a sudden, the userpic that I absolutely did not want to see in relation to anything within 1.5 miles of me came up.
Oh yes, that Ex Who Shall Not Be Named. .26 miles from me. At 9:30 at night.
That was shocking.
