It would seem people are beginning to look outside their browser when sharing digital content, opting instead to file their ideas in actual places. Are we beginning to feel the confines of the computer's internet?  
  
In the last week we've seen a number of ways that people can leave a digital imprint in the real world. [Traces](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2014/08/traces--2?ref=protein.xyz) is a new app that lets you place content in locations before attributing it to a friend who can then track it down using GPS, and [Recho](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2014/08/recho?ref=protein.xyz) is a global site-specific storytelling platform where you can hide a soundbite in a physical location for visitors in the future.  
  
On top of this, a team of French entrepreneurial skateboarders are working on the [Krack](http://www.krack.co/?ref=protein.xyz) prototype, a sensor that attaches to your board and sends data to your smartphone. The smartphone algorithm not only recognises the trick you’re doing but also where and when, leaving a document of who lands and who slams. Skaters can arrive at a particular spot and see a history of exactly what tricks have landed on their smartphone.   
  
The algorithm recognises tricks after thousands of repetitions. So far 15 tricks are recognisable, but with a crowd funding campaign happening this summer a consumer roll out is expected this year, and the more devices out there, the more accurate the algorithm will become.
