I think therefore I can drive

Seems mind control has finally come of age. This German company has produced a thought control system that has successfully controlled a car. Its uses up to that point were to control an iPod and an iPhone. I didn’t know Apple made cars though.

Anyway, this brain-machine gaming interface, the Emotiv EPOC, is [...]

Security takes a leap forward

With Google now looking at offering two factor authentication to its GMail Accounts it seems that online services are seriously looking at security. However, Google has also done the world a service here with the method they use.

Many applications in the real world use two factor authentication as a way to protect security. [...]

Another undersea hotel, where is my city?

I was reading this article on another undersea hotel in Dubai. At only £300M, a bargain.

It made me wonder when we will finally build an undersea city and create a stepping stone to a new world. One that would be outside the influence of our existing governments and one that would be [...]

Government censorship

After the censorship in Egypt and the ongoing censorship in many countries our politicians have seen a way to shut up those pesky sites that keep questioning what they do and posting their failings.

Western governments are now looking at installing internet kill switches for themselves.

Well, no sooner than the government starts to [...]

China makes progress while we go backwards

It seems China is starting to look at moving away from coal fired power stations to new cleaner energy using Thorium in a TMSR (Thorium Molten-Salt Reactor). Plans are in place for a reactor to be up and running in 20 years.

Build your own frontier town

A group of people are working on Open Source modular tools that can help communities build a modern village in the third world. It appears that making these tools is on average 8 times cheaper than buying the ready built tools from manufacturers and the group is making the plans for these tools [...]

Biodegradable Hardware

This sounds like a good step forward for our society. Biodegradable mice. Just think of the number of old computers, keyboards, monitors, mice and printers currently in landfill. Waste seems to follow our society.

Now it seems that the mouse isn’t completely biodegradable but most of it is. That coupled with the previously [...]

Smart phones

I still think Smart PDA type phones are the way of the future. There are many applications out there that show they are leading the way on innovative new ideas to make life easier for us.

Take this new application, iCar, that acts as a car cam and allows you to record what [...]

Battery replacements

I believe the future is electric. I see us moving away from gas, oil and coal as providers of energy because, quite simply, it is the right direction to go. In saying that it needs to be done in a controlled manner, causing us the minimum impact possible, i.e. no impact, and as cheap [...]

Green replacement fuel

Here is a proposed solution to everyones problem, except for the government of course, a new green fuel which directly replaces petrol. We will love it, a direct replacement for petrol at $1.50 a gallon (remember them). Greens will love it (or should if they were interested in facts) as it is a [...]
