Interesting Technologies

I found myself putting items on my TechnoSpeak list that were simply interesting pages about technical stuff. These things were cluttering up TechnoSpeak to the point where that list was losing its focus. So I created a separate list where I can save and sort these things and hopefully keep TechnoSpeak focused on answering questions and offering explanations. I set this list up with Voting enabled so you can (please) offer your opinion as to which of these are truly interesting.

This is hands down the most intelligent battery charger I have come across. And I recognize the Maha name as one of the best, from my experiance as a HAM radio operator (Hams like battery powered portable equipment). Also, I have been buying all my battery stuff from Zbattery.com for years.

I first saw hCards on 'claimID.com'. It is another form of a vCard and this site details one idea for how to put these 'microformats' to use.

What does it take to plot a Universe's worth of galaxies, clusters, quasars, nebulae, stars, dwarfs, and supernovae?

Highlights: This is more than just taking pictures with a telescope. It is taking a Survey, in 3 dimensions. I am interested in this because I have been supporting this experiment's computer systems for several years now. The video on this page lets me show people what they do rather than just...

I realize that most folks don't look at computing on this scale. But for those of us who buy computers by the hundreds, this is going to be a giant step toward the future of large data centers (like my employer).
