This is the best example I’ve seen about the future of R&D and it’s happening right now.

Five years ago your told Jimmy Fallon is hosting a late night show and ?uestlove is going to be the house band and they’re going to play with a mythical Palm device that will rock the market. No one would have believed this would be happening. 

This certainly will make 2009 Formula 1 much more exciting than merely a night race in Singapore. I hope former Honda finds a new BFF$ but this animation, as Gizmodo notes, is rightly badass. For non-car fans, this Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS), is supposed to be a technology demo so we get to see it in our passenger cars in a few years. I didn’t realize it was effectively a boost button, boost effect in F1 is way awesome. 

After going to a few conferences last year, this is entirely true. Interesting how bandwidth propagation at hotels and convention centers is now a critical business decision. Also, T1s are so old hat.
