In the talk you gave on TED in 2003 you said that the petals used inexpensive microprocessors and brushless stepper motors to track the sun on their own. No human intervention was required. The engine, and perhaps the tracking system also, was designed using genetic algorithms. It looked really great and the idea was fantastic. So whatever happened to it? Would be really interested to know – thanks Bill – whatever happened to the solar power generator using parabolic petals to concentrate sunlight on a stirling engine generator?

I've never attended any of the conferences but have follow TED for several years. I'm a big fan of twitter and have 6 twitter accounts with thousands of followers. I'm interested in the tweetup idea, I think it sounds amazing and have already signed up for one of my twitter accounts and wanted to sign up for the others but couldn't figure that out. I'm a pioneer in the art business with a 38 years old art consulting business and would love to talk to you about a revolutionary concept I have and would like to initiate.

Tran Thu, 08 Apr 2010 08:06:49 +0000 http://www.billgross.com/?p=44#comment-6117 Picasa was the best digital photo organizer for the PC that was widely reviewed as the best product on that platform. Lifescape Solutions was acquired by Google in 2004. As of today, Picasa is still the best in its own class. Nevertherless, Picasa is in passive mode and disappear from market. Having worked in the field, it’s given me insight into is the balancing act the Google and customers are facing. I understand what Picasa and strategic partners need and how to uncover those needs in a highly competitive market. 2010 is a very strategic time for Google with a rare opportunity to capture new customers, expand market share and significantly improve profitability. I do have a simple business plan to take Picasa to the next level. Google is a big company and I do hope you can lead me to a right Picasa within Google. I will not let you down.
