Mike Treder is the Executive Director of the Center for Responsible Nanotechnology.
With a name like the Center for Responsible Nanotechnology, you end up on a lot of mailing lists — but almost all of the material we are sent is trivial, irrelevant, or blatant hucksterism. Fortunately, there is one site we can consistently rely on for useful news, ideas, and information: Nanotechnology Now.
"Our 4,000+ daily readers depend on us to sort the wheat from the chaff, culling the nano-pretenders from the real news makers," says Rocky Rawstern, Nanotechnology Now editor. "Every day our staff sorts through literally hundreds of nano-news items, posting only the couple dozen that meet our criteria for real nano-news. Our readers range from business persons to lawyers, college students and professors to politicians, the general public and the military."
We’re happy to say that Nanotechnology Now, our favorite source for nanosphere news, recently posted their 10,000th news item. That’s a sign of remarkably stable success in the uncertain world of the Internet. Beyond that, we admire their unstinting commitment to promoting ethical and responsible use of new technologies. We recommend Nanotechnology Now to anyone with even a passing interest in the rapidly developing world of nanotech.
