Check out this hillarious (but sadly, true) story covered by amongst others, wired magazine.
From slashdot’s report they also link to these Experimental Networking Protocols, using these new robotic flying critters.
The first one is named: A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers
And the other one: IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service

Star Trek in the making

Slashdot writes: “Paramount today announced the new Star Trek film is scheduled for release on Christmas Day 2008. The studio also confirmed the film will be directed by J. J. Abrams, who said the film will ‘embrace and respect’ Trek canon, but will also ‘chart its own course.’ Also today, rumors are outclaiming Matt Damon, Adrien Brody and Gary Sinise will play Kirk, Spock, and Scotty, respectively.”

Good actors and good director too i guess, but can this really be a StarTrek movie with any credibility? I sure hope so!
