Welcome!
Future For All is my personal web site about future
technology and society. I hope you enjoy it.
I Didn't Even Know You Had Kids
Some of the smartest individuals I know, suddenly
remember their kids have soccer practice when I
mention the latest technological break-through. I
asked six of my friends for an honest answer to why
they gave me the techno-snub.
Future Technology and Society
 The
Future
Code
I found a hidden message inside a recent
nano-technology
article.
Future Code
Is the Large Hadron Collider Safe?
Could experiments at the Large Hadron
Collider produce a man-made black hole? Is the LHC a
doomsday device?

Brain Machine Interface
Brain machine interfaces (BMIs) are currently assisting
paralyzed patients communicate, control
robotic arms, computers and other devices. In the
future, BMIs could provide a path to brain
enhancement.

warming have on the Earth and its inhabitants in the
future?

Future Technology Predictions
How far will technology advance in
20, 30, even 50 years from now? How will future
technology affect society?
Here are some scenarios predicted by
science fiction writers, futurists, technology
experts and you.
Technology Predictions
Approaching the
Singularity
Thinking about the Singularity gives me a headache.
No doubt a reaction to asking my brain to
think of ways of replacing itself.
The
Singularity
Live Long,
If You Prosper
At an age that lies
somewhere between Kid Rock and Mr. Spock, any talk of
extending my stay with the living gets the immediate
attention of my good ear. While waiting in a crowded
clinic for a flu shot, I overheard two people discussing
an article on "living forever".
Live Longer
Doomsday Vault
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is a shining
example of people looking towards the future,
considering what could happen, then preparing for
the worst case scenario.

They're Just Not That Into Us
SETI projects have scanned the sky for over
40 years
looking for an intelligent signal. Could our level of intelligence be
unique in the universe?

Smart Homes
My home is not very smart. It does not know when to start my coffee or how to clean the
floor. It has difficulty distinguishing between a roaring
grease fire and a steamy shower, which makes it a good
thing it can't remember the number to call in an
emergency. What can we
expect to experience in the smart home of the future?
Smart Home
Ready or not, here it comes. In the
next 20 years, nano-technology will touch the life
of nearly every person on the planet. The potential
benefits are mind boggling and brain enhancing. But
like many of the great advancements in earth's
history, it is not without risk. Here are some of
the risks posed to society by
nanotechnology.
More than 50 biotech food products have
been found by the FDA to be as safe as conventional
foods, including canola oil, corn, potatoes, soybeans,
squash and tomatoes.

Labeling the Future
Nanotubes have slipped into my sunscreen with the
stealthiness of a cloned kitten. Why are products that use nano or bio technologies not clearly
labeled?
Labeling the Future
Wealthy, Healthy and Wise
When they first hit the market, future
technologies like memory implants and longevity
drugs, may only be affordable to a small percent of the
population. What scenarios could lead to
human enhancement technologies for all?
