Power Grids Overloaded Many Places

This is the real solution: The Moon Does Not Have Water.

Outage in India Could Be a Harbinger for the Rest of the World

The growing complexity and reliance on the electric grid in both developed and fast-growing countries is making stability tougher to achieve..... "Saying the reason for India's gridwide collapse was that they had more load than generation is too simplistic." .... Mansoor suspects it is something fairly mundane, such as a failed relay or a grid operator making a mistake ..... the causes of India's blackouts have more to do with politics than technology and engineering

You might argue the same for APIs. They are so intermingled, there might be an outage or two down the line.

Google Again

I might as well rename this the Google blog. Where do they keep coming up with these new ideas? I think it is that all their worker bees are required to spend a day a week thinking up new ideas. Maybe that is the trick not emulated elsewhere. Like their click through text ads. It is turning the ad industry upside down.

Now Google is in news investing into a broadband over power lines company. Once something like that happens, Google stands to conquer the world. With universal broadband, the entire humanity is one mind. One big mind. One huge mind. Each particular human mind is but a neuron then.

You can't have internet access without electric power. And so marry the two. The electric power and broadband. Now that is revolution, it was not Lenin's 1917.

Plus, broadband is not one thing. It is a spectrum. There is really slow broadband like in the US, and a really fast one like in Korea. The electric line broaband is much faster than even the one in Korea. Now that would be broadband.



Google's got the vision. Kudos. Looks great from the angle of the end user.

Okay Google, now integrate MathML to Blogger. That is one gaping hole. And it is not even difficult. The know-how is already there. It just has not emerged a priority.
