DIGITAL OBSERVATIONS

From Digg, I've got this image... Google in 20 years... :) It is really wonderful to see such a good view on Google by Google Fans... Even though I'm not against Google i feel something irritating when someone out there knows what I'm doing inside my house. Isn't it threat to the Privacy? I had seen so many Anonymizers around Like Hide IP , and many Privacy softwares around. These softwares will be like Hide From Google , ..etc., We may get Google Removal softwares like what we get now like Spyware Removal Softwares, The softwares may be like the following, Spy Sweeper may be changed to Google Sweeper , Spyware Doctor may be changed to Google Doctor , Google Eraser, Google remover, Google Cleaner, ..etc., Block Google... in efficient way... These things reminds me of the article The Final Days of Google. Really an interesting read though.

From this article, The "Bionic Man/Bionic Woman" in us gives thanks for microchips that help our damaged bodies, pills that keep our brains happy and focused, Palm Pilots that put information in our hands and eye implants that improve our vision. But will we welcome a future that includes: designer children, their brains 20% smarter and wiped clean of the most violent impulses; older adults living 20 years longer than today; wireless links connecting our brains to e-mail transmitters; perhaps even human eyes endowed with night vision? There is a big debate going on in this topic... Using technology to enhance Humans? Even this story slashdotted too.. Look at the arguments, "It's a well-known fact that technology can improve our lives. For example, we can reach anyone and anywhere with our cellphones.
