This thing is basically a table with multitouch. It works like an iphone but now has something amazingly exceptional to it. It can project something onto a screen as well as something OVER the screen, so you can place a piece of paper over the surface and see a whole new layer, move that up and see different things, even while turning it (with infrared sensors). Check out this video for a preview:

recovery.gov uses youtube!
Well, I know this may sound irrelevant and unimportant but this is basically (i think), the first time in history I have seen a youtube video that was official from the government embedded from youtube.
It's pretty interesting because:
1. It shows how huge youtube is
2. The trust put into youtube is huge
3. The community and the US president are starting to interact more through the internet, it seems as if our president is more up to date on the technology and such, i love it!
How to kill aids
Aids is a virus that has spread all over the world, mainly hitting Africa. But there was one thing that got me thinking, If a cell containing aids is heated to 60 degrees Celsius (not that much, our body is at 37 degrees) then the aids would die.
This got me thinking so I did a little research, sadly if you heat a body up to 43 or so degrees (core temperature), the person will die (there had to be a catch!). Then I thought about how the blood is cleaned (in hospitals), a tube is put through someone's arm, the blood comes out, gets heated, cooled, and goes back into the bloodstream, what if there was a way to do this for the body, being able to target individual cells and only heat them to kill the aids.
Thoughts and comments?
A little introduction
This blog is one that follows no specific continuation, facts and ideas I find interesting will be posted, interesting gadgets I see will be as well.
I enjoy science and computers quite a bit but am very open to different ideas and facts, something comical or dead serious, ideas are appreciated and always will be.
Thank you, and welcome,
Quentin
