Organic Wireless Transistorless Hardwareless Wireless Computing

“The line between living organisms and machines has just become a whole lot blurrier. European researchers have developed "neuro-chips" in which living brain cells and silicon circuits are coupled together (Than, Ker, 2006. Brain cells fused with computer chip. Live Science, 27 March, 2006. Retrieved November 30, 2007, from http: //www. livescience.com/health/060327_neuro_chips.html).”

Reports were published on March 27, 2006 that scientists had coupled living brain cells with computer chips. This research leads to a new technology that uses organic, living brain cells as complete computer systems that interact with living organisms. Silicon based computer components become obsolete just as vacuum tubes did when the transistor was developed. The world is tied together by an organic wireless Internet protocol and computing moves away from desktop, laptop and hand held devices to organic implants that use the massive computing power of the organic network. Computer screens, sound systems and keyboards are replaced by an organic interface that is used as if it were part of the body, with images and sound projected through the brain and functions manipulated by thought.

This massive change in technology reduces the demand for traditional computer technicians, programmers and operators almost to zero. Computing is now a biological function and computers are created, maintained and directed by medical, biochemical and psychologically oriented teams. The equilibrium point of commercial and personal computing drops close to zero. The only remaining working traditional computer technicians, programmers and operators are artisans and those who service hobby and specialty markets. The demand for organically trained computer personnel rises steeply pulling wages up with them.

What'$ in a Name?

There are over 20 Domain Names here that are associated with music and entertainment.  What are they worth?  For that matter, what is this domain name worth - childrenoftheuniverse.com?  Not the artificial machine generated worth, but Real World worth - as in what someone is ready and willing to pay. I 've read several stories lately about Domain names being the new real estate.  What does that mean?

Listening (to the Internet)

Often I find myself listening to the Internet -
Watching for emails
Responses to my posts
And there's nobody there.

Not the jetsam and floatsam
Or empty commerce
But Real Conversations
That take me somewhere.

But often,
There's nobody there.

GOOGLE YAHOO MSN NEWS?

I can remember precisely the moment that I realized what a waste of time watching television was.  It was just as the "new season" was starting in the fall after I had graduated from high school.  What a relief!  My own mind and emotions had set me free.  I've never been a regular television watcher since - don't ever watch it at home - and feel happier and happier about that freedom the more I hear about what is on television these days.

I'm starting to get the same feeling about the "news" that is presented on the internet by the big names.  It's becoming clear that much of it must be paid placements - take the typical entertainment headline about current films - how is it that we must see a parade of fifty stories about the one movie that they all seem to push at the same time.  Coincidence?  I doubt it.

The thing that I like most is that the internet opens up availability and is destroying distribution/access/knowledge monopolies.  If you can produce it then you now have a way to let the world know its there.  The big names have forgotten this, or simply can't resist the big money - which means someone else is going to step in and fill the gap and then we'll see the big names scrambling to make themselves look like the genuine thing.  What they've lost sight of is that if I'm going to look at fifty articles about films, it should be about 50 films I ordinarily have never heard of.  I'm not interested in being herded into the latest "blockbuster" using the same old "star" names over and over.  It's dull.

Adware Targets Children

Ugh!

Children were the biggest target for spyware makers, by far. The trip to several kids' sites installed a whopping 359 pieces of adware on Symantec's PCs, five times more than the nearest category rival, travel. Popup ads proliferated on the machines after that, making them virtually unusable.

Symantec, the huge internet security firm ran tests for several months looking for Adware and Spyware.  If you have children, take a look at Gregg Keizer's article -

I used to wonder how people like these sleep at night.  Now I accept that they always tell themselves that what they're doing is wonderful, one way or another. All sorts of perverts tell themselves the same thing.   Sad.

FREED AT LAST

I finally got my domain back around 7pm on 5/20.  According to the service reps at Network Solutions there was a Huge problem with AT&T.  But no one can tell me what really happened.  I don't know if it was some kind of system crash, a Big mistake by someone at AT&T or something deliberate.

One thing, I could not get Any assistance from AT&T.  I got one person who said she was Stephanie, she put me on hold and a guy came on who said he was Peter.  Very unfriendly.  I asked if he had a supervisor, he hesitated!, then admitted that he did.  So I asked to speak to his supervisor.  He put me on hold and came back on and said the supervisor would not speak to me - real good public relations - you can Really have confidence when the supervisor doesn't have the integrity/courage/courtesy to speak to someone on the phone who is having a problem with the company.  Makes me really want to sign up for some kind of service with them - Right.

If I knew what happened - haven't seen anything reported on it - then maybe I could find out how to protect myself - but I guess I just pay my money for the domain name and get taken like everyone else when it falls apart.

I've Been Hijacked!! by AT&T

Well, I'm taking a design course online at Sony Digital University and my first assignment was to design a birth announcement - fictitous, of course...
