Interesting article. I think 2010 is going to be a breakthrough year in Physics. There should finally be some results from the Large Hardron Collider (LHC) that will have implications for Cosmology, Quantum Mechanics, and String Theory. Stay tuned!

iPhone devsugar: Working with tablet resolutions →
An awesome article highlighting the upcoming challenges to iPhone App developers (like myself) who will need to port their iPhone app to the yet-to-be-released Apple Tablet.
