  6. Visit Plasma Pong Plasma Pong

    This looks like fun, and is extremely pretty as well as being science-y: "PLASMA PONG is a variation of PONG that utilizes real-time fluid dynamics to drive the game environment."

    http://scienceblogs.com/cognitivedaily/2007/02/how_to_report_scientific_resea.php

    Some good tips here that I might pass on to my students. I don't agree with removing error bars though, even for a non-scientific audience. For one thing, scientists read those articles too, and we need our error bars, dammit!
