The video below was produced by ElectricAid.org, an social group advocating the use of all-electric vehicles. It's a nice video, filmed in Top Gear style, and in features a phrase I've been hearing recently that describes the overall efficiency of transportation energy: "Well to wheel". Expect to hear this more in the future.

As a follow-up to my post on my favorite TVs, here's a list of the cutting-edge trends for LCD displays that were seen at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show. A lot of these features seem to be diminishing returns--like more resolution--but the movement is clearly towards thinner devices that can function as network devices without the support of a PVR or Media Center.
