New, cool... stuff.

Yesterday Slashdot ran a story on Popular Science's article Best of What's New 2003. This piece is so full of cool new stuff I just had to link it myself. My favorite is a bike rear suspension which makes sense even on a road bike. Until now full-suspended bikes have suffered from the problem that the suspension wastes part of your pedaling power... Not anymore.

Of course, most of the stuff in the article won't be mainstream for years, but who would have thought that elementary school kids would have their own mobile phones these days? (Well, at least here in Finland many do.)

I don't have an awful lot to say today, maybe if I'd slept more (than five hours, three less than my optimal of eight) I'd be more creative. Then again, less is more, right? ... Silence is golden? ... Anyone?
