Wired’s Top 10 Snake-Oil Gadgets
November 20th, 2007
Excellent geek-tech blog Wired has a roundup of their top ten pseudoscientific gadgets - including old SciencePunk favourites Steorn, Expertise e3P and Danie Krugel. Author Rob Beschizza is quite literally spitting venom over these products, and it’s nice to see such phrases as “perpetual motion machines are bullshit’s bread and butter”. See the full list here.
