IBM Measures Force Required To Move Atoms

Tjeerd writes "IBM scientists, in collaboration with the University of Regensburg in Germany, are the first ever to measure the force it takes to move individual atoms on a surface. This fundamental measurement provides important information for designing future atomic-scale devices: computer chips, miniaturized storage devices, and more." I've attached a video if you are interested.

Talk about starved for content...

Uncyclopedia bills itself as "the content-free encyclopedia". Excerpt from today's front page...

Did you know...

• ...that the eleventh secret herb and spice is LSD?
  
• ...that John Cage has never made silence sound more golden?
  
• ...that you can always pay your credit card bills using your credit card?
  
• ...that air guitars are similar in shape to normal guitars, with the notable difference that they are made entirely out of air?
  
• ...that Sperm are like hippies: they all stink, all of them are the same, but we can't just have enough of them?
  
• ...that the Bavarian Illuminati used "That's what she said" as a secret code? No one knows exactly which she they were referring to, as they were a very sexist organization and had vowed collectively forsake the female species. Go figure.
