Honey, Who Shrank the Circuits?. In a breakthrough that sets the stage for integrating devices into the wires themselves, scientists report new advances in nanotechnology. By Lakshmi Sandhana. [Wired News]

Um, wow. W O W. This is like the holy grail of nanotech, being able to build itty bitty devices right on the wires. Die sizes will either shrink, or the dies as we know them will simply cease to be, and the largest parts on you computer will be the display and the batteries. Then again, in some of the MEMS based power generators come to be, you'll just need to top off the tanks every so often, not unlike a refillable butane lighter.

Supermodel Veronica Webb's eco-friendly electric car turned into a fire-spewing death machine the other night, burning down her Key West house and killing her beloved dog, Hercules. Apparently this happens all too often with electronic vehicles! [Adam Curry: Adam Curry's Weblog]

Man, that's a pretty major problem there, I might be saving the environment, but I don't want to lose my home!
