It will be interesting to see how the Peugeot 3008 HYbrid4 – a diesel hybrid – does in the market next year. But wait until 2012 and the ‘plug-in’ version of the same car is planned for introduction.

I wonder what the range on a fully charged battery will be…

Google is working on a browser plug-in to let users opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics. Will opting out limit the effectiveness of Google Analytics? If so, how might Google mitigate the loss of fidelity? Forrester Research analyst Joseph Stanhope expects minimal impact because most users won’t use the opt-out plug-in. In any case, the move that could mollify privacy watchdogs concerned about the company’s ravenous appetite for collecting data about users. This would be helpful in the wake of the Google Buzz backlash.

Clothing could become a source of electrical power
PERSONAL electronic devices are becoming smaller and more ubiquitous every day, but no one has yet managed to realise the dream of incorporating them seamlessly into clothing. Yi Cui and his colleagues at Stanford University may, however, have taken the first step: they have designed cloth that can transmit and store electricity. They achieved this trick by dipping the cloth into ink made of carbon nanotubes—cylindrical carbon molecules with excellent electrical properties.
As Dr Cui explains in a recent issue of Nano Letters, when the ink dries, the nanotubes bind to the mesh of fibres in the fabric (it works for both cotton and polyester), making it conductive. The fabric remains flexible and retains its electrical properties even when stretched and folded. Laundering does not seem to affect its conductivity much either. …
