Solar power is no longer just about installing photovoltaic panels on existing rooftops to convert a bit of electricity with sunlight. Nowadays, people are finding unique ways to integrate solar energy into architectural, vehicular and even fashion designs from the beginning. Moreover, some innovators have even figured out ways to make structures entirely energy-independent by combining various alternative energy sources.
When solar was first introduced it was an auxiliary power source – now we have cars, boats, planes and even entire buildings that run on solar power. From the world’s first energy-autonomous vehicle to solar balloons, arcs, lily pads and even bras here are some of the most clever contemporary solar designs. These push the existing envelope of solar technology and design ingenuity.
Here are 14 new innovations of solar poawer are given. Click below to learn more:

After some online research, I got hooked and bought the Asus. It arrived in 4 days. It’s the same price as the Acer but is slightly smaller, has a 160G hard drive instead of 120G and has a 4 cell battery instead of 3 cell, giving 5 hours instead of 3 hours of battery life (tested). Other features over the other brands are a matte, not glossy, display, system recovery tools, and a slipcase. Wireless connectivity is transparent and solid. I updated to IE 7 and found that tab browsing is particularly useful on this platform. I have 7 home tabs that open on startup and they load practically immediately. One downside from the Acer is that the webcam is 0.3Mpixels instead of 1.3Mpixels but live video with this is adequate. Should be no problem making a YouTube video with this.
This comes with Windows XP Home which runs about as good as my HP full size laptop. The one noticable performance thing is a slight delay in screen update when quickly scrolling a long, busy web page, due to non-dedicated graphics memory.
I installed some developer tools (not VS yet) and a virtual machine (VirtualBox) with Linux installed as a guest OS. Concurrently running a few of these things has so far not shown any issues. Launching programs is as fast as any other system I use. I’ve never been a touchpad fan but on this small platform I found that it works pretty well, moving around the smaller screen faster than other platforms.
Overall, I find this thing to be great fun, especially for the price!

Hi people, all woman’s situations have their inconveniences. We feel those of the here and now but neither see or feel those of the future; and hence we often make troublesome changes without amendment, and often for the worse. HAPPY NEW YEAR
