The brain speaks: Scientists decode words from brain signals - 0 views
-
University of Utah researchers have successfully translated brain signals into words, which could lead the way toward making it possible for paralyzed people to communicate with their thoughts. The scientists recorded the brain signals while the patient repeatedly read 10 words that could be useful to a paralyzed person: yes, no, hot, cold, hungry, thirsty, hello, goodbye, more and less. Though the team made a lot of progress, the research has still not reached the level of accuracy good enough for a device to translate a paralyzed person's thoughts into words spoken by a computer.

Location Services Have Not Caught On, Report Says - NYTimes.com - 0 views
-
The number of people using location-based services like Foursquare and Gowalla remains small, and does not appear to be growing, according to a report published Thursday by the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project.
-
On any given day, 1 percent of adult Americans use a service that allows them to share their location, according to the report. Four percent of adult Internet users use location-based services at all, down from 5 percent of Internet users who said they used such services in May. Only 6 percent of people who use social networking sites also used location-based services.
-
The Pew report notes how quickly technologies like these can go from obscurity to mainstream use. In August 2008, for example, 6 percent of adults used status-updating services like Twitter. By September 2010 that proportion had quadrupled.
