My Sphere of Influence

I’ve been running Latitude Auto-Update on my Nokia Lumia 800 for the last month: it sends my current location to Google Latitude every 30 minutes. Here’s the last 14 days of my location on a map:

It’s rather obvious that the day-to-day path of my life is concentrated in a narrow band along Richmond Street that connects home to office, with occasional field trips to the inner suburbs.
