Nanotechnology and The Future of Renewables

Nanotechnology and The Future of Renewables | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

For many people, understanding the unique challenges of nanotechnology can feel a little overwhelming. After all, the general consensus is, that it will be quicker to list what nanotechnology won’t change. One element that this technology is likely to have a profound effect on though, is the usage and the popularity of renewable energy, which is further explained here.

 

Still seen today by many skeptics as a waste of time in regards to the challenge of climate change, renewable energy is set to become a major determining factor of our century and beyond. To this end, it appears that a major branch of technology influencing the fulfillment of this goal, will be nanotechnology.

The art of going small.

Andreas Christodoulou's comment, October 29, 2018 2:00 AM
Now, more than ever, we are faced against the major implications deriving from the uncontrollable use of non-renewable sources of energy. Our contemporary lifestyle, demands that we drive research and practice, towards alternative sources of energy, such that will deal with the current and future energy crisis. In this respect, nanotechnology, seems to be a promising tool to the future of sustainable and efficient renewable energy. Some of the premises from this branch of technology, are explored in this article.

I stopped using Bufferapp because I didn't feel as immediate to my social networks when I used the app, but I am a department of ONE. If I was managing a team again BufferApp would be invaluabe. Just got more invluable too since it is possible to schedule retweets now.

I love using BufferApp to spread out my tweets for the day because I'm usually finding awesome content either late at night or first thing in the morning! It's a cool way to form a base for my social sharing - a few tweets / posts just in case I don't have time to do it throughout the day =)

Love that this infographic opens with social bookmarking, the most underutilized SEO positive tool I know. Social bookmarking is simply sharing your source material in an organized way via a tool such as Delicious. 

Love that this Infographic from Chintan Jain shares great examples of each strategy, who is using the tool for great online presence and branding now. That helps see all the way down the funnel.

If you use Tweetdeck's mobile app... I believe they are shutting it down in early May. As to your question about Hootsuite, the analytics reports are extremely helpful in determining what content your fans/followers are reading and engaging with. The auto-schedule feature is great for determining best time of day to post on a daily basis and the ability to manage Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn profile + company pages/Google+ profile and pages and the additional apps they have that allows you to manage tumblr, youtube, instagram and even MailChimp are excellent!

Information graphics, visual representations of data known as infographics, keep the web going these days. Web users, with their diminishing attention spans, are inexorably drawn to these shiny, brightly coloured messages with small, relevant, clearly-displayed nuggets of information. They’re straight to the point, usually factually interesting and often give you a wake-up call as to what those statistics really mean.

 

Who can resist a colourful, thoughtful venn diagram anyway? In terms of blogging success, infographics are far more likely to be shared than your average blog post. This means more eyeballs on your important information, more people rallying for your cause, more backlinks and more visits to your blog. In short, a quality infographic done well could be what your blog needs right now.
