Found this interesting article. Frictionless micro-ballbearings, anyone?

Interesting. One more step toward the realization of nanorobotics.

We approve.

This can be good or very bad depending on what the applications this is used for...

I'd like to hear the general consensus

this seems really exciting- especially the bit about medical applications of this technology.


plus, I always think it's amazing when folks mess around with little tiny things at the microscopic level.

nanoprobes should come next =]

the good, 7 of 9 ones, I mean.
