  1. Re:They should have named it "Myomer"... on NASA's Invention of the Year Award Goes to Synthetic Muscles · · Score: 1

  2. Photobucket 40% market share on Yahoo! Photos to Shut Down · · Score: 4, Interesting

    From TFA, it's interesting to note that Photobucket has 40% market share, at least in terms of hits (as of Apr 2007). Even if you add up Yahoo Photos and Flickr, that's 10.2%.

    The hour is very late for American-style horizontal suburbia which, as Jim Kunstler puts it (rather harshly), is "the greatest misallocation of resources in the history of the world.
