For those of you who missed it on our front page:


The very popular Popular Science Magazine is calling for submissions for the next world changing invention... not an invention, as they call it, "born in the R& D labs of universities and corporations," but ones just like most of ours, born while taking a shower or shopping at your local hardware store.

I was able to submit. But yeah the link is no longer, seems they had re-arranged their site. But that's ok, the submit is essential a email to "inventions@popsci.com" I believe you can still do before Feb 1st.


And what's about the hoax claim for everyday edisons?

I submitted two ideas

One is my Highway wind power (on my web site). The other one is a secret LED light Bulb idea.
I have been contact twice on that LED bulb ideas with questions (that was before submission closed)

And today, after submission closed. The same Editor contacted me with few more questions regarding LED bulb entry. I guess this means good news to me. :D
