This will eventually be a game changer. Imagine the day that we all have the ability to manufacture parts of the fly from the confines of our own homes? No need to for social interaction and waiting in lines...oh how I want that to be now.
Mike, the balloons I heard about are built to run way above commercial air traffic. Appox 60k feet or so from what I recall. They would be built for severe conditions and similar to the old weather balloons but would include GPS to keep them on point.
I had to chime in and say that somethings truly are free. We've run a free techie and business magazine subscription service for over 10 years now called TradePub.com.
There are over 400 titles to pick from, all of which are completely free and never has a CC # been asked for. The only thing you need to do is qualify for the magazines by filling out a short'ish form and we take care of the rest.
Sorry for the shameless plug but I felt it was completely on point and scope for this topic.
Check it out and see for yourself...
