Nanotechnology is the science of creating devices that are on the atomic level. Computer storage would be measured by the nano-meter allowing oodles of more memory. The "I-POD" would be able to hold a song on one or just a few atoms. Imagine having every song ever created at your fingertips and with today's internet technology, imagine having every new song updated and added to your "I-POD" automatically.
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-check it out!
Rearranging atoms in molecules is another big part of nanotechnology. For example, in coal one can rearrange the molecules to make diamonds. One can also make computer chips through the molecules in sand. For all you nerds out there, yes, even the beach has something for you. Going from the technology we have now, to the nanotechnology in the near future is like going from Duplos to Exoforce. As we grow in technology, like a little child grows, we are able to create more complex and more efficient materials. Duplos do not make very many shapes, but the Exoforce makes definite shapes. With our continued knowledge growth, we are learning how to break down the molecules in every day materials and rearranging them to make life better in the business and personal sectors.
Yes, even more FUN information on nanotechnology!
