Eric Drexler's new nanoscience site.

Nanotechnology pioneer K. Eric Drexler has launched a site focused on the "science behind emerging technologies of broad importance." Along with deep technical information on nanotechnology, e-drexler.com will also explore secure, distributed computing efforts.

"A better understanding can benefit both technical leaders seeking productive directions for research and development, and policy makers aiming to make wise decisions."

A sister site called metamodern.com will delve into the social implications of these technologies. Link

A Little Fun. You may not put much thought into the icons used on websites, but Ro London has. He's produced a nifty website called 300 images from 1800 sites, which includes a collection of tiny icons he collected from around the web -- arrows, buttons, print icons, comment bugs, mail icons, bullets, shopping cart/bag images. These are NOT for you to borrow or steal, but rather the site is meant to help designers brainstorm on their own web graphics project. It's a cool little site, and I thank my Poynter colleague Julie Moos for pointing it out to me. By steve@poynter.org (Steve Outing). [Poynter E-Media Tidbits]
