Privacy please!

Wow- talk about being accessible.  There is new technology being worked on that allows text message display on your contact lenses.  This was brought to my attention in a recent blog, Contact lenses can display your text messages.

 My reaction is eek!  Is there any time that I can claim as my own, just disconnect.  Is this type of accessibility just strange to me, similar as the accessibility of smart phones was when they hit the market, or is this something beyond that?

Perhaps this video can give you a glimpse of what we have to look forward to!


Most of us would understandably not bring our phone into the shower.  We can be out of touch with good excuse- maybe not for long!

An interesting response to this post pointed to the actual changes in the brain that this technology could develop.  Less and less we are differentiating ourselves from the technology we use.  It could now literally be an extension of ourselves.
