The Material Resources blog is no longer being updated! However, you can follow me on Twitter, drop in to my Posterous where I occasionally post things and of course check out IOM3's superb new website (which I manage) at www.iom3.org On the latter you'll find dozens of new articles every month by materials, minerals and mining professionals, as well as a host of other essential information on IOM3 services and communities, and improved features including forums and content alerts. Look forward to seeing you there!

Best wishes

The Guardian discovers nanotechnology

The Guardian appears to have been bitten by the nanotechnology bug, if articles from the past two days are anything to go by. Tuning in to the possibilities of nanotube transistors reports on the application of carbon nanotubes in radios, and Once bitten... welcomes readers to the world of nanofoods, 'where almost anything is possible: where food can be manipulated at an atomic or molecular level to taste as delicious as you want, do you as much good as you want, and stay fresh for ... well, who knows?' Yum.
