It seems like an electric car could be made with two sets of batteries: one swappable and one not. Use the swappable one more or less where the gas tank is and use custom sized batteries elsewhere. You'd have to swap batteries more o

That's true about San Francisco versus Francisco San but I wonder how well Apple Maps does with "4485 Belmont Portland" versus "Portland 4485 Belmont" and the like. It gets more complicated when you realize "oh, yeah I need to add 'NE' beca

Disappointed so far with Google Now - "calendar 3 o'clock" is recognized but brings up a web search for that. Needs to get more Siri-like so it brings up the calendar app and shows 3:00

Shoes seemed like a bad example of what could be made with 3D printing. Even with advances in the current technology it would seem difficult to make something as flexible as shoe leather. The same is true of clothing, curtains, etc. It doe
