Airbus revealed plans for a see-thru airplane set for flight by 2050.
According to TheLifeFiles, "First, business and economy cabins are replaced by zones for relaxation in the front, work in the back, and a fully-stocked bar for socialising.
Passengers will be able to see everything to the sides and in front of them. So blindfolds might be handy come take-off and landing time.
The aircraft’s walls change according to light conditions. There are holographic pop-up gaming displays and in-flight entertainment powered by the heat of passengers’ bodies. The technology could mean travellers might even be able to read bedtime stories to their children back home.
Most of the basic technology such as moulding seats and ‘head-up displays’ already exist, but how Airbus plan to make the plant-based, transparent ‘skin’ of the plane remains a mystery."
NICE!

Facebook's Facial Recognition
Did you know Facebook uses facial recognition to identify your face on every single picture you upload?
According to a new report by Nightline, Facebook has a massive collection of more than 20 billion photos of our faces. Sure, it might be cool and efficient right now...but what is Facebook (and possibly the government) going to do with these pictures in the future? Think about it, Facebook already knows our likes, dislikes, where we live, our family members, our best friends, and now our faces! They are slowly creating an encyclopedia of the human race...craaaazy!
What do you think? Is Facebook's facial recognition software cool or creepy???
