A community portal about Below 100 Nanometers with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Nanotechnology is a field of applied science and technology covering a broad range of topics. The main unifying theme is the control of matter on a scale below 100 nano meters, as well as the fabrication of devices on this same length scale. It is a highly multidisciplinary field, drawing from fields such as colloidal science, device physics, and supramolecular chemistry. Much speculation exists as to what new science and technology might result from these lines of research. Some view nanotechnology as a marketing term that describes pre-existing lines of research.

This is a nice short video. It is great on showing that very advanced materials can be produced by very simple means. Watch, but don't be fooled that really important commercial applications of graphene will be developed very quickly.
A few years ago I was asked by a very good chemist whether there would be any applications of nanotechnology other than in catalysis. I suspect that there will

ScienceDaily (Feb. 14, 2012) — Carbon nanotubes and graphene consist of just a couple of layers of carbon atoms, but they are lighter than aluminium, stronger than steel and can bend like spring-coils. Physicist Niklas Lindahl at the University of ...
