Creepy music aside...

I came across this post from Engadget the other day and just barely found time to pass it along.


It's about an "OS" that replicates the interaction made famous by the movie "Minority Report".  There's also a pretty in depth video to go with it, although the music that's used in the background is a little too esoteric.


It's pretty impressive. I would install it as an add-on to just about any operating system out there, if it were available.

We can all have our own Nuclear Reactors!

Okay, maybe we can't have our own reactors, but a neighborhood or two could all pitch in on one.

This new design from Hyperion Power Generation could be the ticket for cheap, local power.  Plus it's "fun" sized.

A car that makes me wish I had to drive more often...

This may be the smallest version of the Batmobile that I've ever seen, but it's definitely worthy of the name.  This is one of the cars that was on display at SEMA 2008.
