GOOGLE'S KNOWLEDGE GRAPH is it a rudimentary Net Brain, a pool of billions of the most asked queries, seeking unformed answers? Humanity's restlessness, the flotsam and jetsam of long nights, and the quest for the meaning of life, the universe, and everything. It has the magical specter of being the shadow on the cave wall of our combined self, for the first time on this planet. " " http://www.independent.co View in LinkedIn

WIRELESS LOW POWER BRAIN IMPLANTS. March 2013. "Researchers at Brown University have succeeded in creating the first wireless, implantable, rechargeable, long-term brain-computer interface. The wireless BCIs have been implanted in pigs and monkeys for over 13 months without issue, and human subjects are next". " " http://lnkd.in/bfNURGd View in LinkedIn

BRAIN-CHIP. "Indeed, people like inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil don’t think we’ll have to wait 75 years to see smartphones implanted in the brain. He sees this coming to pass within just 20 years". " " http://lnkd.in/beKAhR8 View in LinkedIn

MEMRISTOR, an advanced adaptive computer chip. "By mimicking the brain's billions of interconnections and pattern recognition capabilities, we may ultimately introduce a new paradigm in speed and power, and potentially enable systems that include the ability to learn, adapt and respond to their environment". Just joining the dots, folks. " " http://lnkd.in/bpXbpi2 View in LinkedIn

BRAIN COMPLEXITY. What kind of scale of complexity are researchers confronted with to use biomimicry to imitate a few billion years of wet messy evolution of the human brain? It's estimated that there are 100 billion neurons in the brain talking to each other through a mere 100 trillion synapses. This easily could be a centillion (ten with 303 zeros) connections if we have a Brain Net. Match that engineers! View in LinkedIn

BRAIN PARALLEL PROCESSING, is opposite to computing's sequential processing, and more complex, as computer geeks find out. "The number of connections between neurons in our brain grows approximately by the square of the number of neurons in the brain. So the problem gets very quickly out of hand.""

YOTTA-GIGA-COMPLEXITY had not stopped researchers crossing Terra Incognito to reach dazzling new findings. The observable universe is estimated to be 880 Ym in diameter, comparable in sheer enormity to the human brain complexity. We certainly have a rudimentary grasp of the humblest of flatworm brains. But even our profound basic scientific ignorance has not stopped the boldest of experimenters from making unexpected empirical findings by asking the questions. Recent experiments with mind-mind communication are great examples. View in LinkedIn

BRAIN DIMENSIONS. "The brain's complexity is beyond anything they'd imagined, almost to the point of being beyond belief. In the cerebral cortex alone, there are roughly 125 trillion synapses, which is about how many stars fill 1,500 Milky Way galaxies! And a single synapse may contain 1,000 molecular-scale switches".

VC MYTHS. Six Myths About Venture Capital Offer Dose of Reality to Startups in Harvard Business Review article. "April 16, 2013 – Venture capital is the exception, not the norm, as a funding source for startups. More VC-backed new companies fail than succeed, and since 1999 VC funds have barely broken even.""
