What Would You Stick Under A Scanning Electron Microscope? [Qotd]
Here's some tasty-looking hard candy. And here's that same tasty-looking hard candy scanned by an SEM. Tuns out that there's a company offering to stick almost anything under an electron microscope and we can't help but wonder: What to pick?

First Walking Lego Mecha Is Looking for Lego Godzilla [Lego]
Lego biped robots are a dime a dozen, even while some look pretty sweet . This one is special: It's the first walking Lego robot. And, unlike your usual feet-dragging toy robots, it actually walks by raising its feet . This is definitely not easy to do with Lego or any other material. Maybe this guy should start thinking about building a Big Dog .

Pluto Fanboys Hate Mail [Science]
If I were Neil deGrasse Tyson—host of the Pluto Files and director of the Hayden Planetarium—I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Not after reading the hate mail from thousands of outraged American kids. The kids wrote to de Grasse Tyson demanding an explanation about why scientists changed Pluto's classification from planet into a Kuiper Belt object . The Natural History Museum also retired it from their Solar System model, which logically got a lot of kids reaching for their pellet guns. Neil, they may sound sweet, but they are vicious, those beasts

Zinnet’s Brite-View LinkE Streams Content to Four Devices Over Powerline Networks [Zinnet]
Sometimes Wi-Fi just doesn't do the trick when streaming something to several devices. Zinnet's Brite-View LinkE system will cover you there by allowing you to stream things over a powerline network to four ethernet devices and at up to 200Mbps. It's pretty simple: You plug an ethernet bridge into a wall outlet and connect it to a modem. Then you plug the four-port ethernet switch into another wall outlet and tada! You're able to stream content. The kit's even a pretty decent deal at $90, especially compared to $150-$170 kits

Can I Play HTML5 YouTube Videos in Firefox Right Now? [Ask Lifehacker]
Dear Lifehacker, I've read about how HTML5 will change the way I use the web , but it seems like the biggest example of HTML5 in action is on sites like YouTube—which don't support my favorite browser, Firefox. What's the deal? I find myself, and I'm sure tons of others, caught in the Adobe Flash Player vs. HTML5 battle. Flash Player runs terribly on my iMac.

TypeWith.me Makes Real-Time Text Collaboration Dead Simple, Resurrects EtherPad [Collaboration Tools]
If you like Google Wave's real-time collaboration but not the interface or registration, check out TypeWith.me. It's a solid, simple, as-you-type document collaboration webapp with no sign-up required. A quick background: Google recently bought previously mentioned EtherPad with goals of integrating it into Wave, then closed the service. Then , after some backlash, they open-sourced the entire app. TypeWith.me took that code and put it on a new server that, unlike EtherPad, won't be closing down any time soon

4N Watch Pulls the Time From a Scattered Pile of Numbers [Watches]
The 4N Watch was designed with a relatively simple goal—display digital time through mechanical, analog function. Despite the exposed gears and jumble of numbers, the watch operates upon logic that anyone can grasp. Really, three numbered discs rotate to display the proper 3 to 4 digits of time (we're assuming the hour disc displays the 11 and 12 hours on its own). That's much more reasonable than a tiny arm sorting through a large pile of numbers with every new minute, which is pretty much what we imagined upon first glance

Inside Google Translate’s Polyglottal Powers [Google]
The average translation system uses a billion words to model a language. Google's uses a few hundred billion English words. Apparently, the way to do translation—crunching millions of passages and human translations—is up Google's alley.
