<p>The following (including music) is entirely the product of computer algorithms; a.k.a. <strong>procedurally generated content:</strong><br />
<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_YWMGuh15nE&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_YWMGuh15nE&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p>We&#8217;re getting closer to good <strong>brain-interfaces:</strong><br />
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dI2D-xW0o2Y&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dI2D-xW0o2Y&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />
I think that the above video is the equivalent of watching a tech demo of cell phones in the late 1980s. Give it 20 years and it&#8217;ll be everywhere, give it 40 years and it&#8217;ll be unthinkable to control a computer with something other than the brain.</p>
<p><strong>Other things that have been exiting for me:</strong><br />
* <a href="http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/04/22/1530230">Exoplanets</a><br />
* <a href="http://singularityhub.com/2009/04/21/cyberdyne-ready-to-mass-produce-cyborgs/">Exoskeletons</a><br />
* <a href="http://blogs.computerworld.com/first_google_android_netbooks_spotted">Netbooks </a>(<a href="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/09/netbooks-evolvi.html">more</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Take note:</strong> The collision between cellphones and personal computers is happening. A good amount of resistance to adopting netbooks probably comes from PC gaming (it certainly <a href="http://www.starcraft2.com/">does</a> for me) and lack of good cloud-based applications. These problems are <a href="http://www.raphkoster.com/2009/04/21/google-3d-web-plugin/">being</a> <a href="http://etherpad.com/">solved</a> though, and I anticipate a full integration by 2015.</p>
<p><strong>EDIT:</strong> Oh! I forgot this one!<br />
