News: Welcome to Life
This vid by Tom Scott is excellent. It kind of reminds me of how I imagine the Grid - where you can live on as a conscious stream in virtual reality. Unlike the NL Gird - this one has a catch (or two). Nicely done :)

News: The Jono Gramophone
Want a gramophone to play your old LPs? Try the kitset "Jonofon". It looks beautiful, is made of cardboard, balsa and the bare minimum of electronics. Simplicity at it's most beautiful. Hopefully this will be available to buy soon!

News: Interact with anything
Disney's Touche system can allow a user to interact with anything. It can detect movement, posture, hand positions and much more. This could give a sense of awareness to machines well beyond the humble touch screen. I look forward to this appearing in the everyday world and if it doesn't then hopefully in a Disney theme park somewhere.

News: A six-legged walker vehicle? I want one!
I know it's weird - but the six-legged "Stompy" looks cool. Imagine "walking" down the road in one of these - crazy goodtimes I say! It'd be amazing if they actually do KickStart this idea.

News: Greed will kill us all
Why do nations fail and others succeed? A number of studies point to the history and culture of a society - if the culture tolerates corrupt and selfish rulers/elites they are doomed to fail. Societies that succeed allow more fluid movement between the classes and tolerate less corruption. In other words - short sighted cultures - i.e. greedy ones that consume resources without thought for tomorrow will quite obviously fail. For instance the depletion of forests is closely linked to collapse of populations in ancient civilisations. An interesting take is reviewed here
