I'd never heard of this science site but it look interesting.

Quoted: Web science, the researchers say, has social and engineering dimensions. It extends well beyond traditional computer science, they say, to include the emerging research in social networks and the social sciences that is being used to study how people behave on the Web. And Web science, they add, shifts the center of gravity in engineering research from how a single computer works to how huge decentralized Web systems work.

And to think, my new computer only has 2 cores! What a rip-off!

You must be Eric's friend before you can comment on this Fave.“Finally, after all these years, we’re reaching fundamental physics limits,” he said. “Racetrack says we’re going to break those scaling rules by going into the third dimension.”
Sweet!!! I love the 3rd dimension, and it's about time computing went into the 3rd dimension!!!
Dude. I long for the days of 2D. I just can't don't understand depth. Give me good ol' left and right and up and down anyday!
But dood, then you're missing depth and depth is the best part, and what happens when Time finally gets to play with the other 3 dimensions?
Time? You just blew my mind.
