What are you on about?

So, basically I just wanted to set some foundation on the first post.  This blog is primarily going to be about some of the new and emerging science and technology behind the brain and computers. Sometimes it will be about the brain, sometimes it will be about computer technology, and sometimes it will be about both.  Hopefully it will be about both a lot because the intersection between neuroscience and computer science is pretty cool.  I'll also include interesting things about studies that concern the topic, especialy ones about cross-cultural studies and the emerging fields of cognitive anthropology and evolutionary psychology.  And, I'll try not to bore you because then you'll just go on facebook and stop reading.

Sure, I'll talk about the singularity from time to time, but in all honesty, I find Kruzweil to be very optimistic. But I want to give him the credit he's due. For all of his... idiosyncracies he does have a lot of interesting information and predictions every once and a while.

Also, I don't want this to just be a blog that reposts TED talks. Will I repost TED talks from time to time? Oh yeah, those things are awesome and a great thing for rainy days if you're a huge dork... which I am. However, you can expect and always demand something a bit new.

Also, I love a good discussion, I have an email listed. If you want to bring something to my attention, please do. Also, if you think that you personally have a technology that is interesting, email me about that. If I think its interesting (and most importantly applicable to what I'm doing here) I'll say something about it. Shameless plugs are fine!

Alright, I'm done. I'll post something worthwhile when I decide which thing to mention.
