I've always enjoyed playing with the street view feature on google maps.
It's fun visiting old neighborhoods, as well as places such as the Colosseum.

street view is super fun =) there was a google maps van with a ginormous mounted camera on an intersection near my house. for some reason i didn't think they actually really did drive around recording intersections, especially fairly minor ones. =p

But with the help of some geophysicists at UAF, I have developed a process for “cloning” fragments of ice-core samples taken from million-year-old glaciers. We make thin, tapered plastic containers, each about two square feet, and fill them with ultrapurified water. Even at –40 degrees [Fahrenheit], this supercooled water remains liquid because it lacks a seed to trigger the process of crystallizing into ice. When you drop in a small fragment of ancient ice, it provides that seed: the water instantly organizes itself to mimic the prehistoric pattern.

that is awesome...
