I think we need an iThink
Did you know a Human brain could think of more than 60,000 thoughts a day? And with a hyper active one like mine (which refuses to shut down even in the night), I’m sure one could touch about a 1,00,000 thoughts a day!
I wish there would be some technology (and I’m sure it’s not too far out to think it’ll be here soon) that would enable you to log an interesting thought, as you have it, into some kind of a portable thought machine. For example, say you’re sitting by your window, watching the monsoon rain come down on your new car and you suddenly think of how your car, if it was really was an alive feeling, thinking creature that it sometime feels like when I drive it, must be feeling while taking its first all natural bath, and you go like, hey, that’s an interesting thought to explore, maybe write about, you could then and there, go like ‘ thought machine, record that thought, tag it, My car’s first rain. ‘ And bingo! I can keep that thought for reference when I want to write my next blog.
Won’t that be really kool? It would be so easy to pull up all the thoughts you had as and well you want them. You’d never have to forget how you felt about something, how happy you were at some time or how mad you were at someone. What you thought of when you were going through a completely new experience, seeing a new place…. Wow!
One could expect something like this to be called, say the ‘ithink’ (goes with the trend of all the happenings gadgets that our generation has to have, like the ipod, iphone etc.. and totally fits the description of the product which is, that you think, and it keeps it for reference and future use!
Maybe I should patent this thought. Later when they do come up with the ithink, I can claim royalty for the novel product idea! Well, till the ithink gets here, I’ll have to make do with the thoughts I do manage to hold onto. The rest will forever be lost, until a particular neuron connects with another particular neuron, and I go like de ja vu, I’ve thought of that before!
Yes yes… Welcome to the club. Now you can tell all those techies in your office that you are a techie too.
In a paper world, that’s what they have diaries for !!
That’s it … I think that ithink is a digital diary.
Or maybe you will think “Hey I think I have forgotten this before”
Like Deju Vu and Amnesia together.
Interesting thoughts penned down..keep it coming
Congrats on the inaugral post n u r bang on …we do need ithink… cause if we did this comment would have been sent yesterday

I know how cool it would be to tag our toughts even though we have lot of gadgets and related stuff I know how many thoughts go through my mind when my baby is falling asleep in my arms, when I am playing with him etc… I normally write down coded words on my pda but it is not always handy and private….but tagging it in the mind is awesome and maybe this is really not very far off….maybe not in my lifetime but definitely not very far off…….
