EXOCORTEX MEMORY AMPLIFICATION. "Donald (Origins of the Human Mind) focuses significant attention on the use that modern humans make of external symbolic storage and manipulation systems—the range of technologies from cuneiforms, hieroglyphics, andideograms to alphabetic languages, mathematics and now computers. From Donald’s perspective, these external symbolic systems have allowed for the functional reorganization of the human mind in how it deals with the world.""

GDP BOOSTER. "The internet of things -- the increasing number of machines equipped with internet-connected sensors—will expand the US economy by $600 billion and $1.4 trillion in 2025, roughly the equivalent of boosting GDP by 2% to 5% over the intervening time period.""

YOUR BRAIN ON THE INTERNET. Another manifestation of the exocortex. Human- computer evolving in a symbiosis. "The hope is that, in not too many years, human brains and computing machines will be coupled together very tightly, and that the resulting partnership will think as no human brain has ever thought and process data in a way not approached by the information-handling machines we know today.""

SEQUENCING DETECTIVES. "They were mystery diseases that had stumped doctors for years -- adults with strange symptoms and children with neurological problems, mental slowness or muscles too weak to let them stand. Now ... they were able to crack a quarter of these cases by decoding the patients' genes. Their study is the first large-scale effort to move gene sequencing out of the lab and into ordinary medical care, and it shows that high hopes for this technology are finally paying off.""

HIGGS BOSON TIP OF ICEBERG. "The Higgs discovery is just the start. It completed the physicists' Standard Model but that "just describes 5% of the Universe. "Ninety-five per cent of the Universe - dark matter and dark energy - we have no clue what it is. I think after 50 years now, it's high time to open the window into the dark universe - that's next.""
