Top1000 – Futureseek 2011 Articles

(Filtered from scanning millions+ headlines throughout the year> to just over 13000 in the daily summaries >>, then Top 1000 was selected by me on what i thought was noteworthy, interesting or future related. Interestingly again this year, was the amount left out, just get to 1000. I could have done the list again and come up with a completely different picture, depending on the focus ….., anyhow enjoy the high-level recap of the 2011 headlines from the future.
