This morning when I heading to main land from Island, I heard radio mention a special news, is regarding biology research. A virus battery, discover from Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT), an engineering university in Cambridge
Imagine now you are out of battery in the jungle… Ops.. Jungle are too out of topic, lets said in a public area, and your handphone out of battery, and you need to make a call. That area is either no public phone or all the are spoil. and you can’t even find electrical source.
According to the News
Now, the great discover from MIT, a virus battery, according to the news, a student from this Institute discover virus that may produce electrical charges, and for the beginning of the research, the battery took 6 month time to fully charge.
To get full story, you may check at MIT website. I still cant find much photo to show here… too bad.

Virus Battery, will that bring any harm to human? It’s like in the movie of “I am Legend” saying the virus will cure human cancer but in the end kill all the human. *Sigh*

Wow, that is nice. Feels like we are in the nanotech era already. Finally we can integrate biology, physics and chemistry into 1 single powerful package to serve humankind. I wonder when Malaysia can reach this stage…

ColourfulWorld > hoho, malaysia reach this stage… as goverment to spend more money on research, don always spend for non sense, always make road that are still useable.
like penang road, build whole year also unable to finish… and make alot of traffic jam there… suck…

Right now Malaysia is spending a lot in R&D. The leaders are visionary but those who execute the orders aren’t.
LOL, Penang Road… How I miss Penang so much…
Well, you’ll have to lodge complaint to JKR as well as CC to other parties.
By the way, I’m pretty confident that Malaysia will be the largest bio-diesel exporter in a few years time. We actually have our own technology so 1 day we might actually reach that level of sophistication. =)
Cheer up, don’t be so sad about the traffic jam…
