What do you guys think about memory palaces? http://www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Memory-Palace I heard of it in Sherlock.
I was taught this technique at the Brussels meetup. It definitely worked when we tried it out. Normally I can only remember around 5 things, and the memory palace bumped this up significantly (over 10 things). I didn't keep practicing it and I imagine you could do some amazing things with it if you train this a lot.
