Random nerdy news

- Anousheh Ansari called the Googleplex from space. She has a cool blog. (more here)
- White paper on how computers waste power, technologies that Google built, and how we are working with the industry to make this an open standard. 100 million computers running for 8 hours a day waste about $5B of electricity over 3 years!!

Interesting observations from the first female space tourist. She has broken quite a few records in getting there - great show!

In that case,what about:-
1.The crores of TVs running cable programmes?
2.What about the crores of electrical machines,like;-
Washing machines
Water heaters
Micowave ovens
ACs
and others.
compared to these,the power consumed by Computers should be a small percentage!
For your information,there is electricity theft in many countries!
