Mental Palaces

This article reminds me of Inception but it's very interesting and I'm kind of anxious to try this out now.  It's basically a way of remembering things by taking buildings (or whatever you have an attachment to) that you're familiar with and being able to see them in great detail in your head and then storing memories in those places.  I like the part about one guy who looks at Architectural Digest buildings and then stores his memories in them.  I'm going to start designing weird bookshelves up on the ceiling of my projects and when someone asks what that's for I'll reply "That's for storing memories."
