Mobility Denial System by Josh Rubin

The Sunday Times Magazine covered a slew of "non lethal wepons" currently in research and / or production here in the US. The Mobility Denial System is a thick goo that when sprayed across any surface makes that surface impassable. It has as much friction as wet ice and therefor can not be walked on or driven over. I love this solution because it's totally effective, totally harmless and draws inspiration from some place between a saturday morning cartoon and a sci-fi novel.

Two iPhone Recording Applications
In the race for best iPhone recording application, there are over a dozen contestants but few finalists.
