Laptop Ninja
A blog FOR Laptop Ninjas, not about them. A Laptop Ninja is a cousin of the more common Web Ronin. As a solitary figure who's skills with computer technology and design, the Laptop Ninja survives by performing contract work from cafes, public parks, and sometimes rooftops. The Laptop Ninja's sword is his 802.11 connection, his iPod his throwing stars, and his Bluetooth cellphone his Nunchucks. All of which are usually carried in a discreet messenger bag.

Vampire Batteries
Some Tokyo scientists have devised a fuel cell that doesn't work on alkaline, hydrogen, uranium, or any of your standard materials. No, this fuel cell is powered by blood. Human blood!

All kidding aside, there are sure to be many uses for this. Imagine if you could get a pacemaker that never required new batteries, or have an LED display inserted into your skin to display your current insulin levels?

the real fun begins when we start imagining the frivolous applications....
