A new method of writing onto gold nanorods may provide as much as 10 TB of space on a single DVD sized disc!
10 TB is… it’s unimaginable to the average person. It’s far more than the information in an average library; it’s 521, 000 minutes of music at 320 kbps; it’s 400 Blu-ray discs; if the US Library of Congress digitized all its holdings into plain text, two of these discs could hold all of it.

Toilet at three,
That’s a.m.
Smells like pee
And vomit, damn.
Guys shrieking,
Girls shouting,
Footsteps pounding,
Bass sounding.
Sleep for the weary?
NO WAY!
Incoherent,
Pissed off,
Or just plain pissed,
Everyone here is awake.
Singing old songs
Out of tune,
Like singing with an mp3 player.
Only you can hear them right.
