Apparently, Larry Page, CEO of Google (and creator of quite a bit of tech news), has his own Huffington Post page and my recent article on transhumanism and libertarianism was the lead featured blog on it

I haven't had anything to release for a while, so I may as well share this pic. Apparently, Larry Page, CEO of Google (and creator of quite a bit of tech news), has his own Huffington Post page and my recent article on transhumanism and libertarianism was the lead featured blog on it: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/zoltan-...

I don't think I ever mentioned this, but I recently joined nonprofit A-Team for Wildlife's advisory council, where I offer advice on how to save endangered wildlife using cool new tech.

I don't think I ever mentioned this, but I recently joined nonprofit A-Team for Wildlife's advisory council, where I offer advice on how to save endangered wildlife using cool new tech. There's a ton of stuff going on with new tech that can help endangered wildlife and also educate the public about it. http://www.a-teamforwildlife.org/cate...

Can't resist sharing this fun screen shot from Salon.com of my Transhumanists and Libertarians article link right next to Noam Chomsky. The link showed up in various sections in Salon.com last week.

I'll be speaking here tomorrow at 2PM in favor of atheism at the Religion and Transhumanism conference in Oakland. Tickets still available. Various major media is attending I've been told covering what could be some controversial speeches.

A 15-min video commentary from IEET that interesting. A small mention of my recent similarly themed Huff Po article at end.

My latest Huffington Post article on transhumanism & libertarianism has been distributed broadly, mainly due to the fact that it also went out through Huff Po Politics (it began in Tech) so the link ended up at least for a short time on various major news

My latest Huffington Post article on transhumanism & libertarianism has been distributed broadly, mainly due to the fact that it also went out through Huff Po Politics (it began in Tech) so the link ended up at least for a short time on various major news feeds (including Salon.com according to Google). It's also currently a featured blog on Huffington Post Women's Rights and Women's Empowerment, both popular sections. It's nice to see transhumanism getting out there. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/zoltan-...
