All years

  1. And it's a wrap for this week's interviews. I'm going to let my brain cook now. #futureofmoney #futureofwearables

    May 1, 2015

  2. With all due respect @Annaleen, we have scratched 10% of the surface of the Information Age. Another epoch is not here. cc @anselm @Gizmodo

  3. Short term perspectives pan the apple watch, a longer view envisions a different perspective: direct from my interviews. #futureofwearables

    May 1, 2015

  4. Today, I escape to the sister of my beloved Mojave, the 100+ degree Sonoran desert. #saltonsalvation #eastjesus

    May 1, 2015

  5. @anselm @Annaleen @Gizmodo It's a valid perspective, for sure. But limiting. Information age is just beginning to hit some medical aspects.

    May 1, 2015 · reply to @anselm

  6. @anselm @Annaleen @Gizmodo it's fighting words when you say the Information Age is over. I don't expect it to be over for 50-75 more years.

  7. @anselm @Annaleen @Gizmodo in retrospect, history will chuckle at our short term view of things.

    May 1, 2015 · reply to @anselm

  8. In the far future, "profits" and "individual ownership" will be viewed as barbaric concepts. #futureofhumanity #notinmylifetime

    May 1, 2015

  9. @Annaleen Are not hearts & brains physical things? We have much to learn about ourselves & our human wiring. The data is coming. cc @anselm

    May 1, 2015 · reply to @Annaleen

  10. @Annaleen I agree with that. And I see IT will remain a significant influence in this eg machine learning. (IT != only moore's law) @anselm

    May 1, 2015 · reply to @Annaleen

  11. @Annaleen I could get behind the platform concept if the human body was the platform (for reality - which it is) @anselm

    May 1, 2015 · reply to @Annaleen

  12. @Annaleen @anselm technology (among other things) is created for the *service* of humanity, not *enslavement* or deus ex machina god IMHO.

  22. @Serena you see this as positive or negative? I can't get a temp on it. Article seems to make it be a gender thing.

    May 6, 2015 · reply to @Serena

  23. @Serena Also, I'm over freak outs based on earnings/profit. Wallstreet/investors need to evolve beyond this limited valuation. #icandream

  61. As the rate of successful change increases, say goodbye to hierarchy power. Are the incumbents of today's power ready to give that up?

    May 14, 2015

  62. @bizshrink I can tell. I'm writing a whitepaper on this topic right now based on a 1 day working session. I can tell you've thought deeply.
