If you’re down in / //joins.slides.predict you may want to visit / //history.writing.closets or, if you’ve got a little money to spend, try the Bananas Foster at / //cattle.excuse.luggage. Either way, don’t forget to stop by / //plotting.nest.reshape before you fly out.

If things go what3words way, that’s how you’ll be sending out addresses in the future. Founded by musician Chris Sheldrick and Cambridge mathematician Mohan Ganesalingam, the company has cut the world into three meter boxes that are identified by three words. Totonno’s Pizza in Brooklyn is at / //cats.lots.dame while the White House is at / //kicks.mirror.tops. Because there are only three words, you can easily find spots that have no addresses and without using cumbersome latitude and longitude coordinates.
