Issue #357: supporter edition

Hi [subscriber:firstname | default:reader],

If you're reading this on Sunday, then I'm somewhere in the Peak District of England. It's the first of three weekends of Mountain Leader training, something I've been looking forward to.

This week, I have an article for you about three new technologies, a microcast on 'alter egos', and a roundup of links including ones about hypersanity, goal-setting, and topophilia.

Thanks for supporting Thought Shrapnel 👍
