What is not in our global brain?

While it is common currency that "everything" can be google'd, and - still amazingly - there it is!...would that mean that our "global brain" is developing?

Back on the topic of my dog, the question persisted. When she is very excited, she runs like a tornado, like a cartoon image in my head from somewhere of a bottle, racing, bent slightly so the bottom leans a bit back and the neck cranes a bit forward. With wheels.

Where did this image come from? Being in a cartoon form, I could assume it may be from years ago, when as a very young child cartoons were the medium of informing.

The bottle racer image is nowhere to be found on google. (Without wasting time persisting, obsessing.) So does that mean it does not exist? My memory is faulty? Is it merely a figment of my creative imagination?

That alarms me.

It is 2012 and strong minds still have ownership of what went before. With reliance on the internet's search functions for "everything," will we eventually lose hold of what is real?

Predictions & Predilections

Our thoughts are not only limitless, they are magnified when shared. It truly is amazing how, now, whilst cleaning up the dishes, for example, the thought crosses my mind as Bix the beagle is only too eager to put her face into the dishwasher being loaded: "Bet I could google 'dogs and dishwashers' and someone else will have had the same feeling I am having right now." It is a quiet alone moment that lives a wee bit longer after I start the machine, do google just that and get this: http://blogging.typepad.com/funny_pictures/2006/02/why_run_the_dis.html

So at this moment there is not much I can think or type out that has not been "owned," real estated into shared memory on the web. This is astounding progress, yet still merely a cyber reflection of humanity. "We" may not have improved. Or have we? Will we?

Marching on into the future, we are!
