WTP 210: LHC Fires Up, Google's For the Birds, Tracking African Elephants, and Bletchley Park Redux


September 12, 2008 permalink

The Large Hadron Collider switches on, the universe doesn't wink out of existence, and some in the US are wondering why America is not playing host to it. Also, we look at Google's move to invest in bringing low-cost, high-speed internet access to the developing world via satellite. Then, we hear about efforts to track African elephants using GSM cell phones. We also explore the case of Moroccan blogger Mohamed Erraji, and we have an update on Bletchley Park.
