Excellent, our first catch of the day

Although we may not be dealing with rebel commandoes and ion cannons, the idea of tackling string theory in a blog can be quite mind boggling. since this is such a large subject, lets start with a small part of it, quantum computing. Simply put, quantum computing is where one uses an atom to store information. Unlike other memory storage options, however, since atoms exist in the quantum state, they can be both a 1 and 0 at the same time, instead of just a 1 or a 0, giving it a much larger processing power than conventional computing. To put it into scope, 50 atoms would hold more processing power than we could hold on the entire surface area of the earth today using conventional means. I leave this open for discussion now.
