Nanotechnology pioneer Dr. K. Eric Drexler has launched e-drexler.com.

The site focuses on “the science behind emerging technologies of broad importance, summarizing research results and offering technical perspectives on research directions. It includes tutorial material, new results, annotated bibliographies and links to external web resources. Initial topics include nanotechnology-based production systems (central to the future of physical technology), and secure, distributed computing (central to the future of informational technology).”

Of special interest are the animations of molecular machines and analysis of friction in atomically precise bearings vs. fluid-immersed systems.
