Just add a Compact Flash card and I will not need to carry a camera any more.
Image Sensor Implant Restores Partial Sight:
"Electronics Weekly, BBC News: German firm Retina Implant reported testing results of the chip that has restored limited sight for people blinded by retinitis pigmentosa and similar diseases, destroying only the eye's photoreceptors, and leave its layers of image processing neurons intact."

Prodigy->Gopher->Mosaic->Netscape->IE->Opera->Firefox->Safari->Chrome->Firefox
Being a masochist, I recently started switching over to Google's Chrome browser. I switch often.
Why? I tried new browsers out of curiosity and if something grabs me, I switch for a while.
I noticed that it only had one "box" which replaces the two boxes on other browsers. Gimmick, I thought.
Turns out it is very useful. It is an all purpose search box. As I start typing, it drops down suggestions from several sources:
- A Google search for whatever you enter
- URLs containing your string
- Common searches starting with whatever you have just entered
- Your bookmarks containing that string
- An offer to search the pages in your history containing that string
However, I Have just switched back to Firefox.
Why? Firstly - my password manager does not yet work with Chrome. It's a pain.
Secondly, the ecology of add-ons for Chrome is much less well develped.
And turdly, some websites do not play nicely with Chrome.
Poor Chrome - its tough being the new kid on the block.
