New Alloy Stronger Than Fe And Ti [Slashdot]

Use this to cast knives for military and police officers, EMTs, and civilians. Incredibly sharp, and with a long lasting blade. Low heat tolerance (~750 deg F) keeps this out of the range of firefighters.

Since the material can be cast like a plastic, use it as a replacement for plastic where durability will outweigh the cost of replacing the part over the lifetime of the item it is used in.

Cost is the other issue, this is not cheap at $10-15 USD/lb.

UPDATE: Liquid Metal home page.

Why not, indeed? You listening, cable guys? This is your market talking. We're making our own TV now. We're our own Kodaks. Deal with it. [Doc Searls Weblog]

Imagine a P2P network that was set up for your family. Home movies, scanned photos, Timmy's first school play, all that, shared and hosted for you, at high speed, on demand. This is the next big market folks, lets see if someone can figure a way to make it work. Schools could have and share archives of their events (games, graduations, awards) no more fighting over who gets what photo form the family album either. iPhoto is a part of this, and Apple is already starting it. Sharing home movies is the next phase, and I think that Apple is all over that one as well.  Let's see if they can make it work.

Radio Progress Marcheth On. Putting a Radio post's categories on the web page

"Jake Savin [jake@userland.com] posted in his comments pointers to:

  1. a macro: Drop listCategoriesForPost.txt into your Macros folder.
  2. the code for your Item template that calls it:  

<%local (adrpost = @weblogData.posts.["<%paddedItemNum%>"]); listCategoriesForPost (adrpost)%>

Thanks, Jake! A better way than mine: logic pushed from the template to the macro." [a klog apart]

I may try this one, too, although I'm more intrigued by liveTopics since it also builds an index of posts by category. (Speaking of which, Marc and Matt - I'll get back to trying the installations as soon as I can.)
