Random Robot Roundup
     

Andy at the HideYourArms
T-shirt blog has done it again, this time with a list of
101 robot
t-shirts. Now every Roboticist can wearing robots as
they build robots.
Dale Wheat alerted us
to Smoky the Nanobot's important message that only you can
prevent grey goo. Meanwhile, over on LinkedIn, the presentation of
an odd
theory of consciousness (alternate PDF
format), based
on the OSI 7-layer network model, by Emile Michel Hobo prompted a strangely
entertaining blog post by Abbe Boulah entitled, Bog-Hubert's
Theory of Consciousness. As long as we're talking about
consciousness, another robots.net reader pointed out Yoav Freund's
interesting take on Nietzsche and the
importance of consciousness to AI research. Finally, let's all
welcome the addition of a new editor to
robots.net, Carl Leonard aka Robominister. Yes, the
very same Robominister who produces the excellent RobotCast video podcast on hobby
robotics. He'll be posting updates here as he releases new podcasts, so
stay tuned. Know any other robot news, gossip, or amazing facts we
should report? Send 'em our way
please. And don't forget to follow us on twitter.
