Okay, I'm a little late to the dance on this one. Joshua Klein is a member of that new breed of powernerds spawned by our technological culture — you know, the kind of supersmart fella who didn’t get the memo about the natural relationship between brainy folks, aviator glasses and chemistry person hair. Here, Mr. Klein gives a presentation at this year’s TED conference on a subject dear to this correspondent’s heart: crows. I stand abuse here at the office for my admiration of our corvine cousins; but Mr. Klein seems to understand, and is figuring out ways to hack crows to do useful work. Prepare to have your mind blown out through your ears. Included with this presentation are two tickets to the gun show. Via BoingBoing.
