Almeida Júnior, Saudade, Nostalgia, 1899
Daily Thoughts 5/27/2011
On the train to work, I have been reading a little more of Bottled Lightning. The author is describing the history of battery technology.
This morning, I updated the Twitter account and checked the displays to make sure they were in order. My box of books and audiobooks came in this afternoon from Book Expo America which is always nice. I also wrote an update on our interlibrary loan and holds procedure.
I read a bit more of Bottled Lightning on the way home. I like how there is a progression with lithium batteries from cell phones and electronics to cars. It makes sense that the batteries would be first developed in smaller devices then move to larger devices.
