Some interesting articles

Hey all!

I found especially buckypaper being a really impressive way of building more lighter, energy efficient ships. Hopefully these new technologies will make cruising more sustainable! For me a more ecological way of traveling would be an immediate plus point in taking a vacation.

Here's also an interesting piece (albeit short one) about combining business and leisure:

I wonder if some cruises could be arranged based on this idea of people working during a cruise but also having a few days' vacation. If so how could we improve that experience and how would the trip be set up?
