Finally, more and more versions of what Foresight and IFTF have been anticipating for years and with Next Big Future is on the leading edge of collating and distributing, today. There can't be enough of this kind of publiclly accessible and comprehensible information produced in the next few decades. Toffler's Future Shock is an increasingly looming potentiality; however, risks to systemic and widespread anomie can be mitigated through aggressive, lowest-common-denominator public outreach such as this series.

In this new three-part series, leading theoretical physicist and futurist Dr Michio Kaku explores the cutting edge science of today, tomorrow, and beyond. He argues that humankind is at a turning point in history. In this century, we are going to make the historic transition from the 'Age of Discovery' to the 'Age of Mastery', a period in which we will move from being passive observers of nature to its active choreographers. This will give us not only unparalleled possibilities but also great responsibilities.

Healthy life extension technology is, fundamentally, the greatest possible expression of individual choice - the choice to keep on living in good health, one day at a time, and the choice to work towards creating a future in which that will always be possible.

heavy clickers represent just 6% of the online population yet account for 50% of all display ad clicks. While many online media companies use click-through rate as an ad negotiation currency, the study shows that heavy clickers are not representative of the general public. In fact, heavy clickers skew towards Internet users between the ages of 25-44 and households with an income under $40,000. Heavy clickers behave very differently online than the typical Internet user, and while they spend four times more time online than non-clickers, their spending does not proportionately reflect this very heavy Internet usage.

Henry David Thoreau saw our modern confinement coming in his June 1862 Atlantic magazine essay, Walking:
... most of my townsmen would fain walk sometimes, as I do, but
they cannot. No wealth can buy the requisite leisure, freedom, and
independence which are the capital in this profession. ... I know very
well that they have confined themselves to the highway ever since
... the walking of which I speak has nothing in it akin to taking
exercise, ... but is itself the enterprise and adventure of the
day. ...Moreover, you must walk like a camel, which is said to be the only
beast which ruminates when walking. When a traveler asked Wordsworth's
servant to show him her master's study, she answered, "Here is his
library, but his study is out of doors." ...When we walk, we naturally go to the fields and woods: what would
become of us, if we walked only in a garden or a mall? ...There are square miles in my vicinity which have no
inhabitant. From many a hill I can see civilization and the abodes of
man afar. The farmers and their works are scarcely more obvious than
woodchucks and their burrows. Man and his affairs, church and state
and school, trade and commerce, and manufactures and agriculture even
politics, the most alarming of them all--I am pleased to see how little space they occupy in the landscape...
At present, in this vicinity, the best part of the land is not private
property; the landscape is not owned, and the walker enjoys
comparative freedom. But possibly the day will come when it will be
partitioned off into so-called pleasure-grounds, in which a few will
take a narrow and exclusive pleasure only--when fences shall be
multiplied, and man-traps and other engines invented to confine men to
the public road, and walking over the surface of God's earth shall be
construed to mean trespassing on some gentleman's grounds. To enjoy a
thing exclusively is commonly to exclude yourself from the true
enjoyment of it. Let us improve our opportunities, then, before the
evil days come.Are Thoreau's "evil days" here? For the ground-bound, certainly, but
it is possible to fly almost anywhere in the United States one wishes for
the simple pleasures of looking and photographing.
Grand Engineering Challenges for the Twenty-first Century

It remains to be seen to what extent this "official" agenda actually addresses issues pertaining to the emergence of man-made species and other currently sicience-fiction sounding unanticipated existential threats that could be posed by advances in Nano, Bio, Info, and Cogno sciences.

Coworking is a very interesting concept that could very well provide highly energetic chordic transitive pools within which a functioning post-transcapitalist economy might evolve.

Semantic Web Getting Real | Slashdot
-
This is great for disseminating, filtering, characterizing, and FINDING information, but it seems to do little to protect against the obvious threat of increasing the ILLUSION of diversity and openness provided by a trillion variations of blurbs emanating from essentially ONE SOURCE. How do we cross-polinate these worthy developments with a diversity of viewpoints in order to make the Semantic Web an authentically Eclectic, Inclusive, and perhaps someday Authentically Intelligent Web?

The Office of the Secretary of Defense is trying to figure out how to beat jihadists in the propaganda war. One tool they figure could help: a computer model of "Human, Social, and Cultural Behavior" in Middle Eastern locales. OSD isn't the first arm of the Pentagon looking to build its version of Sim Iraq. But this is the first one I've heard of that focuses in on the touchy subject of strategic communications.
