“Person of the Year” for 2009- Pranav Mistry
I don’t want to lag behind Time magazine in naming my “Person of the Year” for 2009 now that they have named Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke for this honor. My person of the year is Pranav Mistry –this guy is a genius of our times.
Pranav is redefining the meaning for the word “SixthSense’. His ground break research on, bringing intangible, digital information out into the tangible world, and allowing us to interact with this information via natural hand gestures is just amazing.
‘SixthSense’ devices are wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information.
I would like you to watch his video and visit his website to get a clear idea about the extent and impact of this technology.

This guy is a true philanthropist –all his work is open source.
Prototype sixth sense gadgets cost as little as $350. I hope we don’t have to wait too long to wear such a device.

Networking sites boost privacy
Did you notice that resently Facebook took a step towards opening up parts of its site to outsiders by introducing more options for user’s privacy settings.
The changes will make it easier for Facebook’s more than 350 million users to limit who sees their musings, videos, photos and other personal information, but will also give them the opportunity to expose a wider swathe of their information to a broader internet audience.
The move comes as internet search engines like Google and Microsoft are showing interest in incorporating the growing trove of user-generated content from social media websites into their search results.
Schrage, Facebook Vice President of Global Communications and Public Policy said Facebook users will be greeted with a message on Wednesday presenting them with new options to customise privacy settings and directing them to a new, simplified overview page of all their personal privacy settings.
You will see that my blogs are short these days and We’re quite happy to cut it into many small useful pieces.
