Press Clippings Museums and Technology Emerging Technologies Challenges and Trends Published 'Technologies to Watch' Lists Technology in Popular Culture Reports and Research Miscellanea -- Stories, Examples, Food for Thought Essays and Interviews on the Future

The initial listing of news on how technology is used by consumers or in popular media was culled from a variety of sources, including the New York Times, PC World, Technology Review, InfoWorld, Wired, etc.

Please use the edit link below to add more items to the list (see format notes), or to add comments on how or why you think these technologies or developments may be or may not be important. As is the convention throughout the Horizon.Museum wiki, we ask you to identify items you think are of high interest to us, as I have here [LJ], as a means of helping start the sifting process.
