Tesla Torment

Interesting though this is, with those huge bolts of electricity flying through the air, the "music" is so bad that I think I'd be far too tempted to grab hold, to make the pain stop!

Phunky Physics

I have something similar on my iPod Touch, but a whiteboard like this would be truly fantastic!

Murray Gell-Mann TED Talk

I just watched this talk given by Murray Gell-Mann about beauty in physics at one of the Technology, Entertainment, Design conferences.

Quite interesting and not overly technical.

Beefy Batteries

According to this article, a group at Stanford has come up with a way to use Silicon nanowires to make batteries that hold ten times as much power as current Lithium-Ion ones.

That would make my MacBook run non-stop for well over a day, which is pretty much as long as I'd ever need.

Of course, with every great advance comes some downside ... I reckon that, with no concern for their batteries running out, people will inevitably stop using the power saving settings on their electronic devices and end up consuming more resources.

iPhysics

This is a very impressive little game for the touchable iPods.

You draw objects with your finger, which come to life and interact, while obeying the laws of physics.

Physics Game

I'm no fan of computer games ... or games in general, really. However, this tablet-PC based game is pretty clever and I can see how it would be a lot of fun to play with.

Thanks to Spluch for the link.
