    Well it would only make sense that a Google CEO, of all companies, would obey one of the primary rules of the internet:

    Don't feed the trolls.

    Geez. I just Googled "bong air filter." Nothing like Rothman's (again) patentable idea, but I did discover the kids are putting HEPA filters in their bongs these days. Psh. They're missing all the good stuff. #gizmodoremainders

    That battery juice is awesome.

    Looks way to much like the stuff that people were kept in in the matrix though.

    Kinda looks a little like the liquid O2 in The Abyss too. Wonder if I can breath it? #gizmodoremainders

    @macpatrik: I googled around for a bit on it.

    Sounds impressive if they get around the costs. The goal is 11x the energy density of Li-ion for 1/3rd the cost. #gizmodoremainders

    @tande04: Sounds interesting. I'm too lazy to "google around" but I just don't get why they want to make it a liquid. Why not invest in ways to improve our current shitty batteries and their shitty battery lives. #gizmodoremainders

    @macpatrik: I think the liquid part is just how the battery is made. They're not going to add more liquid to charge the battery or anything like that. Just like you don't add more lithium to charge your laptop battery.

    It is the way to improve our shitty batteries' lives. Just like Li-ion is the step up from Ni-Cad, you have to change the material sometimes at the base of the battery to really improve the shitty batteries #gizmodoremainders

    I turn on the Today show every morning. I call it "intelligence-validating television" because I always feel like I'm so much smarter than the average Today show viewer after I see what they're covering. If you haven't seen the show, they have a number of repeating segments. There's "child abduction du jour", "household item du jour that will kill you", "Dr. Nancy Snyderman's vaccination message du jour" and "idiotic moron du jour from YouTube or CNN that wants his 15 minutes of fame". When I leave the house, I feel like a million dollars. It's fabulous. #windows7launch

    I think it's kinda good for MS. It shows Win 7 can run on anything. It's also good that Ballmer didn't go crazy because I wouldn't want to read all the articles with crazy Ballmer photophops afterward. #windows7launch

    I love Ballmer talking about Vista. So dodgey about admitting it's blunder. Still, Windows 7 is a home run. #windows7launch

    Mac laptops are popular display items and make for nice presentations on television. Even generic commercials featuring pharmaceutical A has a debranded Powerbook or Macbook Pro. #windows7launch
