Thursday, September 17, 2009. Killing Innovation and Reforming Health Care. I just read this morning, that the Health Care proposal coming out of the finance committee; contains a $40 billion dollar tax on the Medical Device industry. So, I dug in deeper. Turns out it is $4 billion dollars a year for the next 10 years, it is on all medical device manufacturers with revenues over $5 million dollars and it is to be based on "relative market share". Some references for more context and reference:. Yesterday...

I have been fascinated by the idea of using fiber optics in Medical Devices for the past couple months. I have a fascination with technology innovations that use Light. So, this blog will likely be diverse in it's discussion of technology, but don't be surprised if there is a bias towards, BioPhotonics. I found a couple months ago. I stumbled on this.

Thursday, April 23, 2009. Memex and the beginning of the Internet (Tower of Babel). I stumbled on this article "As We May Think" written in 1945 and credited with the beginning ideas about hypertext and the Internet. Http:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline of hypertext technology. It is amazing. here are some of my favorite quotes. The concluding remarks are the best part.

Saturday, March 14, 2009.
