Hello, I am Robert G. Male. Welcome to TechStop™. Here you will find links that I think are of interest. Furthermore these are links that I want to keep track of because they have given me either ideas or some other form of inspiration for my writing. Links are listed in order lowest to highest both in the date they are given and the order in which they appear (meaning: read them from the bottom up for a certain day's list). Some of these sites may require you to sign up for free. Without further ado, the links...

• This is another step toward science fiction becoming reality. Thought projectors may be the first thought to comes to many, but that is an overt application and perhaps should be only a tip of the iceberg. More subtle devices and uses are the order of the day. Memory units, life blogging are only output uses. The next step to consider is reversing the process, then not only are the videos stored but returnable to the brain adding security, but also opening up new challenges in hacking. Don't forget at this point taking any video and feeding it to the brain as a memory (and not messing around with optic and auditory nerve implants).

• It had to be a concern sooner than later and not just because such high-tech shenanigans have been a part of sci-fi for years. Everything from remote control Manchurian Candidates to druggies has been seen before. The battle between the miscreants and ne'er do wells, and security forces hasn't come up much if at all in my experience. The potential for mayhem is high and the possibilities grim.

• Project Natal (introduced last time--see below) as with many things has to be a mix of hardware and software. Here is a software example that relies on--but at the same time amazes on its own--the hardware as a part of what makes it immersiveness. It seems simple enough, and the point of it easy to overlook because of the specific nature of the demo. This demo could be representative of something educational. It could be expanded in many directions as an entertainment product with myriads of content types. Such software applications with other visual projection methods have been a sci-fi staple as personal assistants that invariably become confidants because of the ability they have to appear empathetic and the trust they engender because while they can be hacked they never willing betray a confidence and they don't judge.
