Does anyone else think this is amazing? Do any of you have any idea of the possiblities that this new techonology will create? Right now there is a company that is working with nanotechnology to create a very strong substance that will go into our bodies and coat our bones. Thus making our bones much more durable, it's kind of like body armor for our bones. Just think about that, broken bones a thing of the past...amazing. That's not all, it's possible that scientists and doctors could inject tiny "robots" that are programed to, once they enter your body, seek out and destroy a certain type of disease...like cancer perhaps.

There are so many possibilities with this new techonology, it's amazing. It's going to change the world.

Yes, it is truly amazing technology, I've been following it for years.

The things they will be able to in the next century will boggle the mind. Hell, some of the first benefits of the tech are already reaching us. New stain free fibers are emerging on the market, and companies like IBM are building silicon chips on a 65 nanometer (1 billionth of a meter) process already, making the next generation of processors run faster and cooler. This is only the start...

Nanotechnology is bitchin'. That's how you can sum it all up. The idea of creating technology that is so small you can't even see it? Fucking amazing. When all of these things come into regular use, the world will be a much different place...

yeah...flying cars, time travel, and ppl living well beyond the age of a hundred. sounds like the future is going to be a bitching place and it is all thanx to nanotechnology

Advances in nanotechnology

Quote:

Dr. Naomi J. Halas, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Rice University, invented a type of particle she calls nanoshells—hollow gold or silver spheres wrapped around a filling of silica.

The hollow shape makes sloshing electrons in the gold particularly efficient at absorbing energy from light, and changing the thickness of the shell changes the frequency of light absorbed. That makes it a promising treatment for killing cancer tumors. Inject nanoshells into a tumor, shine infrared light on them, and they heat up, killing the tumor.

This stuff is still mind-blowingly amazing. Although seven years ago when I made this thread, I would have thought greater strides would have been made by now, I still believe the next 10-20 years will show some significant breakthroughs in this technology.

	meet me at the corner of 5th and pontiac. and make sure that no one else is with you, if you wish to see them alive again.

	I hope you enjoy living on top of the world, when you die knowing you lived your life on your knees.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
