Technology News: Privacy: The Trouble With Augmented Reality and Other Cool Tech - 2 views

      this article brings up the downside of too much technology that could/will/is invading our privacy. It also mentions freedom of choice or customization. Most of the time when I thought of customization I thought of changing the color of something to My favorite color or re-writing something, or choosing how a teacher taught me to fit my learning style, etc... but this article brings up a valid point that collides new technology with privacy with customization. We are consumers and contributers to society should be able to choose what information we want shared with the world via facebook, twitter, Google Maps, etc. If augmented reality is going in a direction where it over lays our flickr photos onto the real world (Bing Maps) and allows us to view someones live video feed from the phone (Bing Maps) then we should chose whether we want that information shared or not....etc...

      I looked this up sometime around last November and immediately explored the website. It's incredible how far it has come since '07.

    This tedtalk discusses how Microsoft is building augmented reality into searchable maps and is from Blaise Agüera y Arcas with Microsoft. This software is supposed to transform how we look at digital images. This is fascinating and also a topic that the students of NetGenEd will be reviewing as part of their research into augmented reality.
