My dreams come true
Only 14 years late, my dreams come true...
Back in the 1994, I was in the US and got overwhelmed with the amount of information one can get over the Internet or on CDs. I though of an electronic book-sized thin battery operated slate, with no mechanical parts; pure solid state card-sized media. My professor at that time termed this "crazy idea", and I destroyed everything I wrote about it. But 14 years of research has made this reality. Read about the "iLiad "here

Web Surfing Speed: 40 Gbps
And who is just doing that?
75-year-old Sigbritt Lothberg is now cruising the Internet with a dizzying speed.
Lothberg's 40 gigabits-per-second fiber-optic connection in Karlstad is believed to be the fastest residential uplink in the world, Karlstad city officials said.
In less than 2 seconds, Lothberg can download a full-length movie on her home computer -- many thousand times faster than most residential connections, said Hafsteinn Jonsson, head of the Karlstad city network unit.
Jonsson and Lothberg's son, Peter, worked together to install the connection.

LED Based Sand Timer
In the past, people had no access to atomic or electronic precision clocks, so they used sand timers and other things (maybe just counting their eye blinks even before that). Now we have presice electronic timing elements and LEDs, and we are making sand timers with LEDs, now which way we are headed, forward or backward. Clecik belo to see it (or buy it if you wish)
