Nano

Hydrophobic material repels all moisture
Nanotechnology has so many possibilities that it's hard to know where to begin.

Nano is everywhere and we are only just getting started.

There are some wonderful clips on the Future Trends channel of YouTube.  Some applications of this ability to manipulate materials at the tiniest level are going to change the way we live - no doubt about it.  I'm blown away my materials that are super repellent to moisture, meaning that nothing dirty or wet can stick to them.  No more perspiration on your clothes, mud on your shoes, grime on your windows.

NeverWet

New words for me to work into everyday speech - super hydrophobic, hydrophilic.

On a fun note I loved this Nokia concept for bendable phones with flexible displays and mood sensors.  Nokia make the most wonderful adverts.  Let's hope we see a return to prominence for this great company.
