  1. So Tiny Car on Google Unveils New Self-Driving Car Prototype · · Score: 1

    It looks like it is designed for indoor, otherwise it is too dangerous to drive it because other drivers can just miss it :)

  2. Local Newspaper was google on Librarians: The Google Before Google · · Score: 2

    I spent childhood in a small town Shklov, Belarussia, where Internet became freely accessible just few years ago. People living there got used to ask their questions from the tiny local newspaper Udarny Front, which publish from time to time a column called "Questions from Readers".

    Journalists working in the newspaper are taking care to answer these questions as good as they can, sometimes polling experts in the specific field. I think that this simple process still works, so in case you need something to know, you just post a question to a newspaper and then wait for a couple weeks to get an answer.
