My artificial wombs article at 13,500 facebook shares, 500 tweets, and 2500 comments

It's almost a week now since my artificial womb article in my Motherboard Transhumanist Future column came out, and I thought I'd give an update on it, since it went quite viral. According to Muck Rack it's at 13,500 shares on Facebook and over 500 tweets. It also has around 2500 comments in different places. It's been shared in a dozen major sites, including Vice's homepage, PandaWhale, and Singularity Hub. It's certainly the most trafficked article I've ever done. Happy to see transhumanism get this kind of attention. http://motherboard.vice.com/read/arti...

Wednesday's Newsweek article that features my ideas on ectogenesis has also been showing up with a link & image on various pages in the popular International Business Times (IBTimes.com) (image below).

Wednesday's Newsweek article that features my ideas on ectogenesis has also been showing up with a link & image on various pages in the popular International Business Times (IBTimes.com) (image below). What's also interesting is that the article has been posted by a dozen large reproductive NGOs and academic associations on their own sites, like the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, etc. http://www.newsweek.com/fetuses-artif...
