It has been some time since I made my last contribution to the front page, and so I thought I might share with you some of the links I came across this evening.

The first thing that caught my eye was a headline over at new scientist about some nanomaterial. It seems that they now have the ability to create a nano-coating that can bring down the refractive index drastically. Just think about what this could do for suncells someday if they figure out how to mass-produce the coating. Maybe 30% more power doesn’t seem like all that much, but it is progress.

Next I stumbled upon an article on wired called Snackslash. I could only nod my head in agreement as I read this stub. We have heard it said a billion times that we are living a fast-food existence where every second is carefully allotted to whatever ultimately yeilds most enjoyment per second. What is being pointing out in this article is that although we might value our time considerably more than previous generations, we also have more refined tastes when it comes to something like media. A good read.

That is all I have time for. Sheeps need to be counted as they jump accross a fence - thats how it's always depicted in Donald Duck anyways. Come to think of it, I dont think I've ever seen a sheep do anything that might be considered a jump. Never seen them scale a fence either. Don't we build fences precisely because they cant? Good night.
