• DIYHPL.us:9000 (“hplusvideo”) was launched as a curated, threaded, non-spam repository for transhumanism-relevant videos, featuring a “/random” page for serendipitous discovery and early support for annotated “talk reviews” to foster deeper technical dialogue around conference content.

• Wearable life-logging hardware was discussed in detail: participants sought open, all-day wireless IP cameras with real-time facial recognition, proposing a hackable GoPro HD + Tegra 2 platform as a starting point for DIY experimentation.

• The Physiome Project (physiome.org.nz) was highlighted as a source of open computational physiology models that could be integrated with personal health-tracking data to accelerate open-source biomedical research.

• The complete private keys for every PlayStation 3 were publicly leaked, prompting debate over repurposing PS3 clusters for low-cost scientific computing versus moving to newer Intel Sandy Bridge hardware.

• A comprehensive, tag-based external memory of #hplusroadmap conversations (“meetlog.txt”) was shared, with suggestions to add per-topic weighting or bias scores to improve retrieval of personally relevant discussions.

• Mainstream visibility of DIY biohackers increased when the San Francisco Chronicle featured the “self-tracking movement” and quoted kanzure on its front page.

• Participants criticized the Humanity+ UK conference site for “vague meta-talk” and reiterated a community preference for events that foreground reproducible data and concrete research outcomes over abstract futurism.
