The list of today

I have recently stumbled upon a cool list of fancy stuff called the List of emerging technologies. This list can easily be wiki'd and simply describes the human advancements which are beginning to appear outside of the purely conceptual stage. This list is basically one of 20 or so interesting technologies which are worth your time to read. The technologies on the list are all applicable today, and are in various phases of testing. I personally think that it would be rather neat to see any of these technologies fully developed. Effects could range from solving the energy crisis, to curing cancer, but any discovery would lead to the positive advancement of the engineering industry.
