Gearlog : Sony's New Reader Is For More Than eBooks
Wow
Gearlog : Sony's New Reader Is For More Than eBooks: "Sony is promoting how easy it will be to buy ebooks from its Sony Connect service, and that is all well and good. To my surprise, however, you will also be able to read any unprotected PDF or eBook file on the Reader as well. For Sony, this is very open-minded."

Gearlog : Slap A USB Drive on Your Wrist
Huh..
what an interesting idea.
Gearlog : Slap A USB Drive on Your Wrist: "Since CES was going on last week, it's hard to read about anything else on the Web. However, I was able to catch this unique USB flash drive. Up until now, you've been carrying your USB drive around your neck or on your keychain. But, with Imation's new USB flash drive, you can sport it around your wrist."

New Scientist Breaking News - Living camera uses bacteria to capture image
Have you read PREY by Michael Crichton??
New Scientist Breaking News - Living camera uses bacteria to capture image: "A dense bed of light-sensitive bacteria has been developed as a unique kind of photographic film. Although it takes 4 hours to take a picture and only works in red light, it also delivers extremely high resolution.
The “living camera” uses light to switch on genes in a genetically modified bacterium that then cause an image-recording chemical to darken. The bacteria are tiny, allowing the sensor to deliver a resolution of 100 megapixels per square inch."

Charleston conference 2005
Well I thought I may as well do a live blogpost from Charleston.
I am here for an Acquisitions conf.
Today I attended a product demo
The bacon was exceptional. Maybe a little too sweet.
The gift bag included bene(sp) wafers. What a nice treat.
The demo was good, if not uplifting.
Today I spent in the hostel trying to get some work done. I've only seen one roach so far, and it was small.
I slept good last night. There was no one in the room next to me and there was no traffic noise. unbelievable. Now if only I could lock my window.
I posted some pics on flickr

Green Car?
I thought the idea of the hydrogen car was to get away from using gasoline.
Isn't natural gas another non-renewable resource?

Green Car Congress: Hondas More Powerful Fuel Cell Concept with Home Hydrogen Refueling: "Honda also unveiled its current model of the Home Energy Station (HES), a home cogeneration and fueling system that uses natural gas to supply electricity and heat in addition to hydrogen fuel for vehicles."

MAKE: Blog: Applications for your USB drive / iPod
Make your own bootable USB drive, and there is a link to someone who has compiled some utilities to put on it.
MAKE: Blog: Applications for your USB drive / iPod: "Here's a great list of applications you can download and run off any USB drive or music player like the iPod. I usually keep my iPod nano filled with applications so I can use any system, but still have access to all the programs I need. It's also handy to have a toolset when you need to fix computers."
