Socialstructing: Statement of Social Currency - http://www.boingboing.net/2009...
"Reputation Statement of Account," was designed by our colleague Jason Tester, a researcher and a designer, as a part of our 2004 Ten Year Forecast. It remains one of my favorite artifacts and seems to perfectly encapsulate emergence of new types of social currencies as a part of a reorganization of our lives around social relationships. In this world, it would be easy to imagine that the statement of your wealth would include accounting of your social capital as measured by contributions to various types of open communities, such as Wikipedia or Flickr. - Kevin Lim

The General Electric Hardiman was as close as science got to a cyborg during the ’60s; and even then, it was a stretch, since it was worn by its operator rather than grafted onto his body.

The General Electric Hardiman was as close as science got to a cyborg during the ’60s; and even then, it was a stretch, since it was worn by its operator rather than grafted onto his body. Hardiman was the first serious attempt to build a powered exoskeleton that could multiply the strength of the operator enough to allow him to lift 1500 lbs as if it was a packet of peanuts.  General Electric had high hopes for Hardiman; envisioning it being used aboard aircraft carriers for bomb loading, underwater construction, in nuclear power plants, and in outer space, but by 1970 only one arm was actually made to work.  It could lift 750 lbs and responded according to specs, but the thing weighed in at three quarters of a ton and any attempt to get  its legs to work resulted in a fit of mechanical St. Vitus Dance.  One arm does not an exoskelton make, so Hardiman faded off into development limbo.

"Siva, I doubt the experience of reading and flipping through a book will ever be replaced by an eBook reader. We might have to live with that compromise if ebooks ever get mainstream. If anything, I'd say that the tougher economy would force publishers' hand into making the transition." - Kevin Lim
