Flying People in New York City

Three human shaped remote-control planes were flown around New York City to create the illusion of people flying. Watch this video:



These bigger-than-life-size human-shaped, remote-controlled flying humans can be yours for $345. Called the RcSuperhero, the airplanes are made out of laser-cut foam, carbon fiber and other light materials and weigh only 3.3 pounds. See rcsuperhero.com

Highways of Tomorrow-From 1958

I wish we still had Walt Disney. Look at the amazing foresight he had in this excerpt from the 1958 Disneyland TV Show episode entitled Magic Highway USA. This last part of the show explores possible future Transportation technologies. It's hard to believe how little we've accomplished on this front since 1958, even though most of what he dreamed of then can be done with today's technology.

Samsung’s New Smart Window

Samsung's Smart Window is a transparent touch screen, like the one featured in the movie Minority Report. You can see through it and use it as an interface to a computer. No word yet on the price point, but it's going into mass production in the coming months.

Samsung is a pretty amazing company. They are developing LOTS of products simultaneously and not losing focus. One winning product after another.

Emergency Food Storage


Free business idea for an enterprising entrepreneur:

The domain PrepareYourShelf.com is available for someone who wants to start a business selling food storage items.

Key selling point: Most dehydrated food companies forget about providing the water you need to re-hydrate all those packages of food.

Your company could provide dehydrated water for people to store with all their dehydrated food.

The idea is yours for the taking. I have so many good ideas, I can't pursue them all!
