New Goodies


Here's a HEADS UP on a new phone service that apparently is the
BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD. Grandcentral.com
It allows you to route all calls from all phones to one phone, via the web.
It lets you place a link on your website. People click it, and call you.
And much more, including saving wireless minutes Oh yeah, it's free.

Redesigned Boeing Aircraft to Replace 747s?


It may look like a stealth fighter jet, but Boeing is hoping its new X-48B aircraft will become the commercial airliner of the future. The blended-wing plane—a name given to planes that merge the fuselage and wings into one—eliminates the tail part of a plane (which is usually the part of the plane responsible for lag drag). In doing so, the X-48B uses up to 30% less gas than a typical airliner. Boeing hopes to have a military version of the plane ready by 2022, and a passenger model by 2030.
