robotmcdonaldsnov Report Indicates that Robots Will Be Able to Perform Menial Jobs by 2025

According to a new report from the National Intelligence Council, robots will be able to replace people in a series of menial jobs by the year 2025. The report dictates that an influx of robo-workers will "disrupt unskilled labor markets," with robots taking jobs currently performed by migrant workers, high school students and the like.

Additionally, the report states that emerging technologies could be used to assist humans to perform tasks such as caring for the elderly. The report offers no word as to when robots will be able to run for congress or write blog posts about tech news items.

Virtual Flower Shop

vflowers Virtual Flower Shop

A team of ex-Microsofties left to create Jackson Fish Market, with the tagline “Handcrafted Software Experiences,” in November 2006.

One of their projects, “They’re Beautiful” is the first to launch. It’s a free virtual flowers site. Users can send a virtual bouquet to any email address (even without registering). The recipient sees the bouquet and can choose to put it in their Greenhouse on the site by registering. They then must return every few days to “water” the flowers and keep them from wilting.

Btw, Jackson Fish Market is hiring!
