Oy vey! Get your hands off your fluidic channel and learn some nanotechnology already.



The Technion-Israel Institute of Technology is offering a free online course from the online open learning platform at 'Coursera.' It is a 10 week long course and is offered in Arabic or English and is described below (taken from their website.) The course is called Nanotechnology and Nanosensors. So....book March 3rd, 2014 as the day you decided to use 'the internet' for some free education from a well respected institute and institutionalize your self. At the very least, you'll know if you prefer synthesizing metal oxide structures by dry methods or wet methods. Who knows, maybe that would explain why you prefer 'wetter' Bindi Masala or the dryer version. (I'm a wet man myself.)                   So stop playing with your 'fluidic channel' and popping those plastic bubbles from the left over plastic blister pack from that Star Wars toy you ordered from e-Bay and learn about 'Blown Bubble Film' instead- and make mama and pappa happy :) GET INTO IT! 


  Anyhow....here's the  English version link and course description in their own words:
Learn about novel sensing tools that make use of nanotechnology to screen, detect and monitor various events in personal or professional life. Together, we will lay the groundwork for infinite innovative applications, starting from diagnosis and treatments of diseases, continuing with quality control of goods and environmental aspects, and ending with monitoring security issues.
