Thank you to Riem, I came across this article by Anthony D'Andrea in the Mobilities Journal: Neo-nomadism: A Theory of Post-Identitarian Mobility in the Global Age.

Simultaneous thinking or not, it is good and flattering to see that I have fostered a field of inquiry on its own, and that the neo-nomad wording/thinking spreads, though I mainly speak about psycho-socio-cultural aspects and spaces. I look forward to read this article.

As I wrote in a reply to Bill Thompson after discovering his BBC article, In Search of the Neo-nomad, I have been working on the neo-nomad since the time I was enrolled at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in 1999. The title of my MIT thesis (MIT, 2001) is Embodiment: Mental and Physical Geographies of the Neo-nomad. Since, I wrote many articles about neo-nomads, some for Ubicomp conferences… I also graduated from Harvard with a Doctor of Design, which title is: Neo-nomads: Designing Environments for Living in the Age of Physical, Digital and Mental Mobilities (Harvard, 2006). I opened my research blog much later in 2005… Thanks to Jerôme Chevillat and Roger of Kaywa, my words have spread to the point of peaking to 722 visits a day for the month of June 2007!

My book, Neo-nomads, is coming soon... patience!

Anyway readers, for your information, here is a list of relevant publications, interviews and talks I gave around the world on neo-nomads:
