The Ice Bucket Challenge helps against ALS
We have all thought at least once that the #Ice Bucket Challenge was a media stunt, an unserious way to raise funds for scientific and medical research against #ALS. In reality, that wasn't really the case. Here's what's happened in the last few months. During the summer of 2014, photos and videos began to appear on social media of people falling over or having buckets of frozen water poured over them. But why? All this was to give visibility to the research against… Read more

The future is made up of many things, and an important theme is precisely that of human enhancement, the improvement of physical and mental performance that can arise from the use of new technologies or medical procedures: in this article I want to offer you some ideas to reflect on. … Read more

4 predictions about the future of the web
One thing is certain: the Internet will never be the same again. If the forecasts for upcoming web developments seem obvious and inevitable, it is true that they will lead to marked changes in our experience of using the Net.
Because politics will do without politicians.
In difficult times like these, popular demands persist: in the last 3 and a half years the only positive developments for our country have come from referendums. To the ever greater surprise of politicians and scholars of social flows, political protest movements are organizing themselves and are preparing to be, thanks to the Internet, increasingly structured and 'intelligent'.

Some jobs will still survive in the future, let's be clear: but there is a whole series of jobs that don't exist today and which could be useful in the near future. Let's go with common sense: 60%...

These cells, which have stopped dividing due to the ravages of time, continue to secrete large quantities of molecules, many of which are toxic, in the surrounding environment. In a study recently published in the prestigious journal Nature, scientists from "Mayo ... Read more

2012, the year of redemption for blogs: Enel has its prize ready.
The long wave of social networks has passed: this precious communication tool has been adopted en masse by surfers all over the world, but the massive use of social platforms such as Twitter and Facebook has not swept away an 'old' form of expression on the web, which is indeed always left for dead but always remains afloat: gentlemen, the blog is not dead but lives and fights together with us. The flow of continuous updates that we can refer to over time… Read more
