Future Technology

Updated 2005-01-04.

Thanks for stopping by. If you think of a way to improve this site ( notice any broken links? think something is missing? ), please tell me about it. Email me <d.cary@ieee.org> . Or use this feedback form . Most of my pages are about recent or near-future technology. I have lots of little nuggets of information about the many things I find interesting. Why am I giving out this information for free?
