It's not perfect, of course -- cloudy days can still easily double the recharge time of batteries -- but as the efficiency of solar cells improve, we may well see increased ubiquity of solar power for all our devices, especially as flexible, wearable panels become available.

Sex, Ukeleles, Gadgets...and more! 12/25/2003 11:36 AM
Have a merry, sex and gadget filled hyper-commercialized Japanese Christmas. "Well it all started when a Spanish Jesuit missionary named St. Francis Xavier brought Christmas to Japan in 1549...." The Jesuit bid to Christianize Japan was a flop though, and now - while Jews in the West, for example, tend to go out for Chinese food on Christmas Eve, the Japanese had little connection to the Christian version - so they invented their own! Syncretistic Japan pulls in random elements of Western "Christmas" and recombines in pleasing new ways! ( shocking only to Christians ). Santa Claus on the Cross and more!

A proper Christmas in Japan - for singles - involves a hot date and visit to a "Love Hotel" where "you might be directed by scantily-clad female elves to rooms complete with Christmas trees and life-size reindeer watching the proceedings with interest." and "Grop e Free Commutes", for Japanese women tired of having their asses grabbed on the subway by drunk salarymen returning from "Forget the Year" parties. This fine blog chronicles it all: " the Dolphin-and-fish-surrounded Christmas tree", Ukelele Christmas parties - "I wandered into a score of middle aged Japanese ladies wearing Hawaiian shirts and plastic lays, tuning up their ukuleles" and more. And don't forget to buy some cool new gadgets. "...a tiny robot helicopter weighing less than 9 grams... "

Do You Need A Spare For Your Gadgets?

Do You Need A Spare For Your Gadgets? 03/29/2005 06:58 AM
Stories about how people live via their mobile phones (without backing the data up) and would face serious consequences for losing them are nothing new. While this USA Today piece covers much of the same ground, it includes the story of one guy who actually carries around spare gadgets for the situations in which he loses his gadgets. Having had a laptop hard-drive die three days into a 10-day business trip last year, the idea of toting around a spare laptop whenever I travel sometimes seems appealing (though, I've resisted). Still, will we reach a stage where our gadget bags will need to double in size, just in case our gadgets get lost, stolen or broken? Then again, as the end of the article points out, sometimes letting go of these gadgets can be quite a relief. It's likely that plent y of others would agree.
