Neo video games: mind controlled or mind control? - National Worldview and Science | Examiner.com

Mariano has posted an interesting article on mind controlled video games. I think he raises some valid points. I think that is a human mind can be read and manipulate a computer, I see no reason why it can't go the other way to some degree. Given the technology companies like Google are working one like Google's Glass, there is some evidence that things are going to be going this direction more and more..Some film-makers have created a short-film about how such technology would eventually look like. I would like  to point out that like all technology, this doesn't have to be evil or used nefariously. It can be used to help people and move us forward...provided we don't do with it as done at the end of the film.

First Known Use Of OMG In Letter To Winston Churchill (PHOTO)

So when Solomon wrote that there was nothing new under the sun, he had a point. It turns out that "O.M.G."  was first recorded in correspondence almost 100 years ago in a letter to Winston Churchill from Lord Fisher back in 1917! I thought that it was only used in late twentieth century with people  passing notes in junior high school. Who knew?
