The development of nanorobots is something that has been on spot most recently – e.g. Check here or there and there. A letter has been released in answer to US Navy interests on molecular machines, describing the developed technology as an open resource. The letter also provides an overview on ethics and legal aspects regarding new and emerging technologies, serving as a guidance to small companies, engineers and the scientist community. The content of the letter is available here, while the description of the TTCP workshop to happen in August 2010, is available there.

Reason: Moved to /General as this is not a Linux technical question
Look, don't make this into a blog, don't put links like that, I mean describe the links, don't just put here and here, and over here and here and here and here and here, and there and here and there.
But, yes, nanobots will soon be inside you, and they will help relieve you of your lack of trust.
@adrianocavalcanti: The blog format has its place. Have a look at the right of the LQ screen under MY LQ: My Blog. Start your own today if you feel like it!
You are right! The great on it is that prices is going down, and the performance of electronics just keep moving up and up.
Yep... I like Nokia, very good brand indeed. I myself use a N5800 -- that is amazing what you can code and implement with it, integration, telemetric hardware manipulation, etc
Some new materials are even helping in such process of making things shift from micro to nano, allowing IC-gates with extreme lower heat production and higher performance.
According to PCWorld, developers are already experimenting with transistors composed of single atoms. This proves the possibility of nanotechnology in the general world, including the use of 1024-core CPUs, which certainly are possible with this size of a transistor. Say goodbye to those single-core clunkers... This is the future: an entire supercomputer hive on one chip!
