The Daily Dozen

  1. $200 laptops break a business model.
  2. Manage your money online with these services.
  3. Hacked construction signs warn of zombie attack.
  4. Is an Apple Store coming to Georgetown?
  5. Carbon nanotubes could replace expensive platinum catalysts and help finally make fuel cells economical.
  6. Google officialy starts the Google-Amazon book war and the importance of Kindle 3.0.
  7. More on the 1.5 million books Google just added to the iPhone. Hopefully, this will work on the Palm Pre too.
  8. Does traffic trigger lightning?
  9. Poll ranks most and least religious states in the U.S.
  10. The evolution of the American household.
  11. Chimps are born politicians. I guess it works the other way around too?
  12. Is the new Kindle going to cost $399? At that price, there better be some pretty good improvements. You can buy a fully functional laptop (netbook) for less than that these days.
