I saw the page you started for Nanotechnology. I have been thinking about how to increase science/technology coverage at Wikicities. I think it would be possible to start a new wikicity that would include coverage of nanotechnology. I suggest a broad topic, maybe "science and technology frontiers" or "science and technology think tank". Maybe such a wiki city could aim to form a bridge between sources of speculation (such as science fiction) and real science and technology that already gets coverage at many websites.

Since nanotechnology page is going to be deleted, I moved the contents here:

Nanotechnology
This is a term used to mean a group of technologies which are associated with the creation of nanoscale devices (up to 100 nanometers. a nanometer is 1/1000000000 of a meter.

Nanotechnology in Life
It has been recently that nanotechnology has become intergrated in full scale industry with the computer chip manufacturing business now using 100nm processes.. and 65nm and even 50nm processes in the near future.

Other applications currently conceived include the creation of quantum dots, which are small particles injected into the human bloodstream and are able to permeate inside cancer cells and act as a diagnostic tool. they might also be designed to deliver drugs preferentially so these cells and cause a revolution in cancer treatment.

Nanotechnology has tremendous applications with molecular manufacturing, Drexler was the person behind the concept.

.... incomplete.. to be continued. please contribute.

Deletion of Nanotechnology article
Hello. I have deleted the Nanotechnology article as per our Deletion process. See it's talk page for the discussion. -- JamesTeterenko 07:24, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
