Assorted Technology Bits

Category: Technology
Posted on: February 28, 2008 9:07 PM, by Dave Bacon

Technology tidbits of assorted flavors:

  • I think I just made myself dizzy.

  • Multi-touch to the max, dude!

  • What does it take to build the next Silicon Valley (besides Gallium Arsenide?) Via John Cook's Venture Blog comes this report.

  • Bill Gates uses LinkedIn and asks: "How can we do more to encourage young people to pursue careers in science and technology?" (Is it wrong that my knee jerk reaction is "eliminate middle school?" :) Oh and look I have more LinkedIn connections than Bill Gates! He has more dollars, though, I guess. I bet I have more joke-like "Bacon" paraphernalia though!

That multi-touch demo video reminds me of Tom Cruise in Steven Spielberg's "Minority Report."
