Finding Free WiFi

Kindle On The Bus

While I personally still buy books rather than reading them on the Kindle, I think it's a brilliant idea.

Had my first 'she's using a kindle in a normal book situation' encounter today when the woman next to me on the bus was reading off of Amazon's device.

The next moment I looked though....she was asleep, and the Kindle was coming dangerously close to falling out of her hand.

I guess you can change how books are read...but the words on the page (or screen) can be just as boring as ever. Does the kindle have 'the book I'm reading made me fall asleep' drop protection?

Future of the Web

Wow...go Huskies

From MSNBC, read the full article here.

Researchers at the University of Washington have created the prototype for a bionic contact lens — recently tested on rabbits — that includes light-emitting diodes, basic wiring for electronic circuits and even a tiny antenna. Future versions, the scientists believe, could serve as a flexible plastic platform for applications such as surfing the Internet on a virtual screen, immersing gamers in virtual worlds and monitoring patients’ medical conditions.
