Adventure Lounge: This isn't quite flying cars, but USA Today notes that sales of private airplanes are taking off because of technology that makes them easier to fly.

InformationWeek Weblog: Just as President Bush touts overall rise in employment, the ITAA points to a tech job growth, though both increases remain skimpy and well below the recent past when employment surged. Similarly, the ITAA raises a favorite Kerry theme that offshore outsourcing is hurting the American worker.
