If you’ve ever wondered about the future, then you’ll love this from Orange! It’s called #FutureSelf and the campaign site uses some pretty cool tech to allow users to meet, speak and discuss the future 20 years from now! 

Orange is inviting people to engage in a first of its kind technological journey 20 years down the road to meet and speak with one’s future self, using a host of digital enhancement technologies to re-imagine the user’s 20-year older self. 

It included; Faceshift (facial motion capture software) used on live actors to enable Orange to track and replicate facial muscle movement. Then using a combination of 3D rendering, ageing simulation browser technologies like Google’s speech API and WebGL, a ‘living’ speaking version of your future self appears, ready to have a conversation with your curious present self via webcam. 

Users can ask themselves a variety of questions, anything ranging from the personal – love, children and money – to the more outlandish, like the current state of the Justin Bieber or the number of robots in your family. It’s highly intelligent, and a lot of fun if you ask the right questions. Enjoy it here!

Put your diet on autopilot

Eat This Much automatically creates meal plans with your personalized nutrition targets, food preferences, and budget, and then sends them to you every week with a grocery list.

 It can cater to most diet types, including Atkins, paleo, vegan, zone, and many more via the extensive options menu.



A How-To Guide to Eat This Much

1. Figure out what your goals are. Do you want to lose weight or gain weight? This will probably be obvious to you.

2. Use a calorie calculator to estimate how much you should eat. You can find one by clicking "Not sure?" under the calorie input on the generator page.

3. Craft a meal plan! See the FAQ for help on using the generator. The most important factor in gaining or losing weight is total caloric intake, but there are many nuances to consider when it comes to macronutrient distribution. See the nutrition references page for more information. Remember - the best diet is the one you will actually follow.

4. Either follow the diet exactly or use it as more of a guide. Err in the direction of your goals. Your results will likely reflect your effort.

5. Exercise is important in controlling your weight and health in general. Use this program picker to find a good workout plan. If you're trying to gain weight, intense physical exercise (such as weight training) is absolutely necessary to make sure you don't just get fat.

6. Stick with these programs until you can manage your diet and exercise without them. Given some time, controlling your physical health will become second nature. Or if you're like me and like never having to think about what to eat, keep using Eat This Much!

A huge no-equipment workout collection!

Different workouts, some are more challenging and some are easier than others, will ensure that your muscles don’t get used to the same regime, giving you more in return, and also help you stay active and not get bored with the same routine.

Visual workouts are designed to guide you through the routine, as you go from one exercise to the next, in an easier fashion than in a video.

Just follow the guides and have fun! You don’t have to work through the entire book; you can pick the workouts you like most or randomly select one and make it a workout of the day. Ideally you want to do 4-5 workouts per week.

How it works

The counters that display the real-time numbers are based on Worldometers’ algorithm that processes the latest and most accurate statistical data available together with its projected progression to compute the estimated current millisecond number to be displayed on each counter based on the specific time set on each visitor’s computer clock. Sources are carefully selected to include only data published by the most reputable organizations and statistical offices in the world. Please refer to the frequently asked questions to learn more about the mechanism.
