Here are the emerging technology stories for the week of July 23rd.
A Nanomechanical Computer – This is pretty cutting edge stuff, and interesting to anyone who read Neil Stephenson’s Diamond Age. These researchers are just getting started on the ideas behind building a true nanocomputer.
GM’s Volt, a Plug-In Hybrid – My colleague Wayne Rash had the opportunity to take a close look at new pluggable hybrid car from GM. It is actually pretty cool looking.
Playing Footsy With Your Mouse – It’s kid of funny looking but I would be interested in trying one out. I’ve always had a hard time with foot coordination. It’s why I gave up on playing a drum set.<</p>
