1. Cool new blog (new to me): How To Split an Atom

Steven Spalding’s blog about the Web 2.0 culture, and how to survive in it. A cool blog that bounces around from subject to subject...I like that sorta place.

If you get nothing else out of it remember that at the end of the day, just like espresso, reading How To Split An Atom will at least make you look smarter.

2. Cool Web Thing: XMail Harddrive

Use your gmail account as an online harddrive. This is pretty cool. Check out the how to vid from Billy Nye (any relation to Bill Nye the Science Guy?)

3. Cool Real World Thing: The wings to the new Boeing 787

The engineers involved with the design are curious about its capabilities. They have an interesting question that will probably never be answered. An intriguing perplixiton?

Can the wingtips of the new carbon fiber wings TOUCH above the fuselage without breaking?

Not that I ever want them to...but...holy indestructability Batman! [linky]

4. Extra Cool Thing: Ornithopters

As in extraordinary. The slow fly ornithopter:

I wanna build one! Looks like you can get yourself some over here: Free Flight Ornithopters. Or build one from scratch: [linky]
