Whats a interesing new idea to research regarding memory? something
new or a twist to current research on memory.

I knew the answer, but I forgot what it was.

Animal or electronic memory?

i think its a Nano Memory

Holographic Drive, it holds terabites of memory in a new holo format. 
Has a solid and inovative future in memory storage.

I found some info on the memory technology that may start you off.

What are the Major Improvements to Storage Technology ;

-   will have highest NLO analog / digital / optical capacity available
-   will have lowest cost per gigabyte
-   will have lowest power requirement per gigabyte
-   will have highest data bit density of any storage device
-   will have longest archive shelf life of any data storage media, 100 years
-   will have widest environmental conditions and tolerances
-   will be only technology that scales from nano to macro solutions
-   will have most reliable removable read / write media available
-   will be a non-contact recording nanotechnology for increased reliability
-   will have highest bandwidth data transfer potential
-   will be direct replacement for hard disk drives
-   will not be effected by extreme high energy Cosmic Rays
    i.e. Solar Flares and Solar Winds for Moon / Mars Exploration
-   will be nuclear/cosmic radiation hardened capable

i once saw a show where they talked about differnt parts of the brain
where differnt information is stored. For example, the part of the
brain that recognizes people (faces) is different from the part of the
brain that recognizes things and objects (eg . a clycle, a chair). And
to go further and study it, there were people, who could look at a
picture of a chair or a cycle and not recognize it, but they could
reproduce what they saw (through drawing) on paper. The ability to
make sense of the object was lost. To put together sight and
meaning-making. I found that really interesting. That the brain's
challenge is to subjectively make meaning out of recieved data. And
the disconnects that happen lead to discoveries about human nature.

Some people think that "memes" could be the things that our memories
evolved from, memes can be things like tv jingles and are viruses of
the mind, and like viruses they need a body to live in and also to
spead them from one body to another. Well memes do this and there is a
theory that the meme created/evolved "memorys" as a way to spread
themselves...
