    The Nokia Research Center is working with the Cambriage Nanoscience Centre to develop nanoscience technologies that will bridge the latest and greatest in emerging technologies with the ability to benefit the end user.

My friends and I are always trying to think of completely new ways to do things. It’s tough.

The tipping point is 102, 950 and I’m number 40 supporting the cause. If you haven’t yet go over the www.thepoint.com and check out how you can contribute. [...]

How many of you have never noticed the arrow between the ‘E’ and ‘x’ on the FedEx logo?  I bet quite a few. Well you’ll never be able to look at the FedEx logo again and not see that arrow. This is why graphic designers get paid good money. This logo is phenomenal.
