Human Cyborgs

The idea of human cyborgs actually becomming a reality and not just something in science-fiction films is really amazing. This is was definitly my favourite topic this semester in cybersocieties! In further research on Kevin Warwick I found he has his own website which has alot more information on his background and what he is done, have a look at: http://www.kevinwarwick.com/index.asp. I personally think kevin warwicks idea that people will become cyborgs in the future very exciting. There is so much that is possible, like what he was saying in that video we watched in class. Also the idea comes to mind of imortality. If we all started to become more like 'cyborgs' then life expectancy would really go up as we could stop many of the things that let our bodies down and cause death. A video I found talking about how the future could include cyborgs and the possibilities of what these cyborgs are capible of is here:
