Intel Wants Brain Implants in Customers' Heads by 2020. Brain waves to operate computers, TV's, phones, gadgets. YES, we are slowly becoming cyborgs. But turning brain waves into real-world tech action still requires some heavy decoding of brain activity. If scientists can translate brain waves into specific actions, there's no reason they could... - http://www.popsci.com/technol...
yes, me too i think the immortality is coming. it is tied with organ re/growing progress, and understanding, stopping and reversing the process of aging. .. and then yes, we are programs, set of instructions, running in the brain .. BUT, incredibly, inscrutably complex and advanced program entity ... in fact, it is a miracle, a miracle of life.

Computers already can translate brain waves into specific actions within a computer application with visual feedback. Its medical application is to help people with major head trauma to learn how to re-map their brains. Pretty cool stuff.

I have been dreaming of typing without having to touch a keyboard for years. Or while dreaming...could become creepy,too,sadly.

@Gabrielle .. yes, definitely. it will be brand new - maybe 'creepy' :] by our today's standards - world. .... we will be immortals - thus notion of 'time' will lose any meaning, bodies completely exchangeable, possible to create new life forms - just as creating friendfeed or twitter post or webpage now, we will create new creature, technical robot, hybrid or bio creature. .. we will be able to suppress old feelings like pain, hunger, etc. .. learning, memory will be of unlimited capabilities. invisibility

"For some time I have tried to get a reliable information about the individual parts of the characters of the alphabet. The anatomy of type if you like. It was not so easy to find online. Still I found some and then some in various books. The problem however is I did not find any one source I was fully satisfied with. Each one had some names missing which the others had and so on.. I collected all this info together and put in one as complete as I could. A second problem was to find a typeface that included everything. I finally gave up. It’s really hard to squeeze everything in. The ones that seemed to fit the best like Times for instance I didn’t want to use and some I wanted to use didn’t have all the major part names. I finally decided to use a two beautiful and also free fonts, Tallys and Museo by Jos Buivenga"
