This one has people talking: macro-scale sheets and ribbons of multi-wall nanotubes. And created at an impressive rate of meters per minute no less. Compared to things I'd read about other processes, that's jaw-droppingly fast. When you read up on what kinds of things could potentially be made from this technology, you'll likely agree this is pretty amazing stuff. It's hard not to think we're on a materials and electronics shift of ... well ... paradigm proportions.
I've read a few news entries today, but the best one I've read so far is over on WorldChanging.com, so go read that entry here and perhaps keep an eye out for the MSM reports on teevee (they might actually report on this news within a day or two).
