Technology Singularity is closer & closer, Mcguire Spidey, Donnie Darko II, Next Gen browsers, Veg in Space, See NY to London, Stranger Things TV

Sci Fi Pool Highlights for 30th May Include:
  • Intelligent Computers to recognise emotions - as we take one step closer to the Technology Singularity (TS)
  • Monkey Operates Robot Arm - and another step closer to the Technology Singularity .... is it my imagination or are we getting closer, faster with each article you read ...... oh, I forgot that is the point!
  • Mcguire may play Spidey after all - Another rumour (now this is the way to promote your film!!) maybe Toby is going to play spidey again. This is also the io9 guys take on who should play the role though
  • Donnie Darko Sequel - The first film was so good that they really shouldn't go here ... maybe we are wrong but we have seen too many good films having their reputation besmirched by bad sequels, and this one doesn't sound like it will inspire us to change our minds
  • Web browsing in the future - ever wonder how, or where you will be browsing the web in the future? Well Google believes it's new open source "Android" software is the mobile browser of the future ... and we think they may just be right considering how pervasive they all ready are
  • Feeding the world from space - Wow this could really save all those starving people around the world ... oh no, wait, we ca already do that if we use some of the food that is completely wasted by the 10 richest countries every day. Still, this is impressive and could be a future industry ... Space Farming.
  • New York to London Telescope - impressive, retro-sci-fi but completely pointless as far as I can "see"
  • More Web TV brought to real TV - Haven't watched Stranger Things yet but have just book marked it and will check it out later
