roadmap for nanotechnology

would be interesting for our "second life project"

So we need lasers. Big lasers. :)

anybody want's to have a closer look at this?

Francesco, check this one out ... seems like coming at the right time for us ... Leopold

Sure looks interesting, hopefully it will gain some traction. Bonus point it uses Python heavily :) First versions are coming out in Sept/Oct, according to their roadmap, we could start playing with it as soon as it gets out.

The "Biological Economics" thing is a hyping (or misunderstanding) of the BBC article. The work it refers to seems to be an application of Complex Networks theory to financial networks. I found what appear to be some of the related publications: Andrew G. Haldane (April 2009) Rethinking the financial network (further references in the footnote to page 10) Erlend Nier, Jing Yang, Tanju Yorulmazer and Amadeo Alentorn (April 2008) Network models and financial stability Funny how these issues have been repeatedly popping up at the ACT in recent weeks. This connects both with the discussions on information spreading in networks, and with roadmaps' robustness.

A blog of a futurologist. We don't do that, but still it is interesting how these guys work. And what type of stuff they distribute...
