2007 Young Innovators Under 35

This is an article for looking out young innovators but I felt some, how should I put this, some feeling of self-accusation. Compare to them, I do not have any brilliant idea, I am not a rich and have not achieved a great work so far etc... :( But look on the bright side, this might be what makes us tick and if you drop across some of them and succeed to maintain a good relationship, you may have a great friend. Who knows if he/she will be great success in the industry? haha :)

Since 1999, the editors of Technology Review have honored the young innovators whose inventions and research we find most exciting; today that collection is the TR35, a list of technologists and scientists, all under the age of 35. Their work--spanning medicine, computing, communications, electronics, nanotechnology, and more--is changing our world.
