Techsack presents 4G Wireless broadband network  posted at TechSack.com. The 4G wireless wide area network or WWAN works over the same networks that power our mobile phones and PDAs. The thing that’s so exciting about this new 4G network is that it is said to be able to reach speeds that are faster than our current wired broadband connections.

Chris presents Wushu and the Second Cultural Revolution posted at Martial Development. Web 2.0 looks an awful lot like Maoist collectivism. Will it prove to be a similarly destructive force for modern culture?

FitBuff presents How a Digital Scale Analyzes and Calculates Your Body Fat Percentage posted at FitBuff.com’s Total Mind and Body Fitness Blog. Holy Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis, Batman! Body fat scales, though not perfect, are a great way to track your general body composition progress, and greatly outweigh (pun intended) the benefits of a boring, traditional scale.

Matt Hodkinson presents The iPhone and VoIP; Revolution or Pricey Gimmick? posted at The VOIP Provider Guide. For the most part, the technology of the iPhone’s WiFi capacity, Address book integration, 32-bit Operating System is all the basis needed to start bringing mobile VoIP to the mainstream. The particular SIP protocol that works with mobile phones is especially situated for this technology.

Marc and Angel presents 7 Google Searches I Wish I Could Take Back posted at Marc and Angel. Google Web History has been around for about a month now, and what a fantastic tool it is! Fantastic… until you start combing through your search history and realize you wish you didn’t make some of those search queries after all.

I didn’t know that a feature like this existed within the Adobe Acrobat Reader. Phil presents All Intelligent and Sentient Beings have a Right to Freedom posted at Phil for Humanity. We are entering an age when technological advancements will allow other intelligent and sentient beings, besides people, to come into existence; however most governments are not yet prepared to deal with this eventuality.

Deb Serani presents The “Eyes” Have It posted at Dr. Deb. Iris scanning can now detect personality patterns.

Jeremy Aldrich presents Response to “Why Second Life Will Never Go Mainstream” posted at Global Citizenship in a Virtual World. It’s been said before but it bears repeating: SL has a lot of shortcomings, but it is the kernel of a new Internet platform that has great potential, much like the Web in the 1990’s. Are you going to shoot it down or make it better?

Wilson ng presents Technology?s Role in our Lives posted at Reflections of a BizDrivenLife. Wilson asks, “If we see ourselves years into the future, and technology capability is not an issue, on what areas into our lives should technology come into place? Is it to eliminate pain? sorrow? grief? inconvenience? Will we use it to shield us from the ugly realities of life and for us to increasingly use it to attain ‘virtual’ happiness?”.

Welcome to the Carnival of Emerging Technologies. Although response to the first edition of this carnival is average, I am sure that it will become more popular soon. Here are the posts that have been selected to be featured on this week’s carnival.

Mr Credit Card presents Review of Vonage VOIP Phone Service posted at Ask Mr Credit Card’s Blog. According to the writer, Vonage offers the most value for the money. It was cheaper than Verizon VoiceWing. Comast does not have their phone service yet (it is still more expensive) and a couple of other VOIP services that are much cheaper are not so well known.

Clint James presents The 411 on Google’s 411 posted at Static Cure. Google released Google 411 this week to help counteract all of the relatively expensive information services that you are connected to after dialing the ubiquitous three digits.

Raj presents Wallet Meet Phone, Phone Meet Wallet at Chameleon TechnoBabble. Cell phones in North America will increasingly be used as wallets as mobile banking technology makes its way here. There are a number of ways that payments can be made, though the one likely to become prominent is NFC (Near Field Communications) technology.

Priya Jestin presents Hot, Hotter, Hottest: Top 50 Amazing VoIP Gadgets at VoIP Lowdown. The chunky telephones that characterized the days of Graham Bell have undergone a sea of change and evolved to become sleek, cool, compact and good-looking handsets today. VoIP handsets eliminate the need for separate microphones and headsets - they provide seamless integration with the call network, so much so that you hardly know the difference between a VoIP and traditional telephone call.

Pushpa Sathish presents Will RFID Conquer Outer Space? at RFID Lowdown. Are RFID tags robust enough to survive the extreme conditions in outer space? That’s what NASA is attempting to find out when Endeavour takes off to the International Space Station in July later this year.

That concludes the first edition of the Carnival of Emerging Technolgies. Keep submitting your posts to the future editions of this carnival. Thanks for your support and contribution.
