Even nano robots need a place to unwind and read the newspaper!  Yes, that really is a nano toilet.  All kidding aside, nano technology is still in its infancy, but good progress is being made.  Really, it’s just a matter of time before we can start building things on the nano scale - in mass.  [...]

Well, well, well.  It seems that there is a market for mini laptops.  But we don’t need Dell’s latest Inspiron Mini 9 to tell us that.  But it seems that Dell will actually make a run at it.  Let’s take a peek.

Being visually impaired has its share of challenges.  One of those challenges is getting books that can be read.  Braille books are hard and expensive to produce - and so they are somewhat rare.  The Voice Stick (brainchild of Sung Woo Park) allows visually impaired individuals to read via optical character recognition software.  Now that [...]
