In no way would I want this. Perhaps I'm just being that old guy on the porch complaining about technology, but I happen to like my innate ability to forget things.
I come from an extremely forgetful and absentminded family, and so it is a constant struggle to keep 'important' things in the brain. But the benefits of it by far outweigh the drawbacks (which usually come in the form of late fees and only 1 arrest :).
The brain needs to wash things down the drain to make room for new stuff. While medically we might be able to prove this is not damaging, I can only think I'd get a little crazy having so many details in me. How can we say it's not damaging when we know so little about how the brain works?
