Crowdsourcing is frequently covered in the top online tech-mags such as Mashable and TechCrunch, there are some specialized blogs that cover crowdsourcing and then there is the industry website Crowdsourcing.org. Hot topics in crowdsourcing are Crowdfunding, a new financial instrument that enables you to seek a sum of capital by requesting small donations or investments from large groups of people to fund or grow your venture. Open Source Innovation is another hot topic which enables companies and organizations across the world to access groups of people that sit beyond their traditional physical locations, to generate and develop new ideas.

They’ve made some pretty significant strides in brain/prosthetic connections (ref video below). Sooner or later, there are going to be people who want to have their body parts replaced with synthetic body parts whenever possible, because synthetic body parts – when sufficiently developed – tend to outlast the organic kind.
