futurescope: ‘Quantum Internet’: Towards realization of solid-state quantum network From physorg: Researchers at TU Delft in the Netherlands have managed to bring two electrons, three meters from each other, into a quantum- entangled state. This result marks a major step towards realizing a quantum network that can be used to connect future quantum computers and to send information in a completely secure way by means of ‘teleportation’. The results have been published online on April 24 in Nature.

Who are we to question science?!

This may be the most elaborate Rube Goldberg video ever - and the song is pretty awesome too.
