Next Little Thing 2010 - Electricity without wires (1) - Small Business

Welcome to the unwired world - internet connectivity, voice, and now, energy. Never stop questioning what's possible.

"Marin Soljačić couldn't sleep. The problem was his wife's Nokia cell phone. The tyrannical device beeped on the bedside table when it needed to be plugged in. It could not be disabled.

Instead of taking a hammer to the phone, Soljačić marveled at the fact that this device, and billions of others like it, was sitting a few feet away from all the electricity it could ever need. Why couldn't it receive power wirelessly, just as laptops get Wi-Fi? "

Backcasting / nForm / Trading Cards

Just stumbled onto this - a series of "trading cards" relating to usability, IA, etc..

Smells a lot like TRIZ (the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving), and "Ideality." The more I think about future/backward approaches, the more sense it makes to me.
