Clever Thoughts

or at least a technical discussion of some of the problems with LED based lighting appears in the most recent issue of IEEE Spectrum. Good read if you skip most of the device physics (unless you happen to like that sort of thing in which cast feel free to read all the details).

Not much new but a group at NIST has also been able to produce memristors, this time on a flexible sheet. Based on the description in the article I expect a flood of additional announcements as more teams discover that the unintended effects seen in new products turn out to be memristors in disguise.
