HP, Princeton Develop New Memory Material

An anonymous reader writes "Hewlett-Packard and Princeton researchers say they've developed a hybrid material that could be used for super-compact electronic memory, making the CD, DVD and similar media seem enormous and clunky by comparison. As reported by Science Blog, 'The researchers achieved the result by discovering a previously unrecognized property of a commonly used conductive polymer plastic coating. Their memory device combines this polymer, which is inexpensive and easy to produce, with very thin-film, silicon-based electronics.'"

"Why on Earth would anyone want to do that?

Why don't I just give you my phone number and address while I'm at it?"

There's no demographic information, it's purely a (rough) location. For example, if "located" to London, I'd be one of 8 million possible people... if this is Big Brother, he needs glasses.....
