Wanted: Better layout for main-page. => learn from Wikidata.

• wikidata main page frame
• wikitata MP without pics
• How are those placed side by side?
• How are the images made to scale with browser-window-size?

Three ideas

Miraculous Nanobots – A Widespread Myth

book cover

Picture: My Little Pony - The Smooze

A viral idea that spread in the public consciousness.

Its about swarms of
"living" nanobots (nanobugs)
which spread uncontrolledly like pests.

Hoorofable: Grey Goo
"the unavoidable total apocalypse"
such a thing always sells well

Gem-Gum Pants-Pockets Factories – The Current Concept

book cover

File:Nanofactory-cut-open.jpg Composition of screencaps from the video: "Productive Nanosystems"

A reliably predictable but hard to reach far term goal (since 1992) that is barely known.

In contrast to the mythology such a device can:

• not "crawl away / buzz away"
• not "devour" everything
• not "mutate"

Molecular Assemblers – A Dated Idea

File:Engines-cover.jpg book cover

File:Nanoutopia pair-of-replicating-assemblers.jpg Pic: BBC Horizon: "Nanoutopia" (1995)

An obvious bio-analogy (1986) from which the "Nanobug-Mythology" emerged.

The idea is dated since it turned out that assembler

• are significantly more difficult to reach – (but not fundamentally impossible)
• would be pretty inefficient – (due to missing space inside for specialization)
• are not desirable – (because of forms of grey goo that are toned down to more realistic levels)
