With my new blog, I decided to dust off an old printed list of developments, before LED's took off so much that they could no longer be followed. We've come a long way from dim red indicator lights!
Very interesting. You noticed a lot of the same things I did-particularly when NYC replaced the traffic signals en masse with LEDs (and now they're putting in LED pedestrian countdown signals). When I first got my hands on a white LED in 2001, I said one day these things will take over the world. That's exactly what is happening right now.
