South Korea Looking to Build Robot Land

A couple days ago, just heard about the new that Japanese plan to build the tallest building in the world!! Now there is another country created a amazing idea which is to Build Robot Land!!!

South Korea is well-aware of their plight and has announced plans to build "Robot Land" -- a city entirely created for the robotics industry. The city will feature facilities for research, development, and production of robots -- it'll even have a stadium for robot-related competitions, like the much-heralded "Who Can Malfunction And Kill Everyone First" contest.

The project will cost $530 million dollars and will begin construction sometime in 2009 -- which is also the year North Korea begins construction on their very own "Crazy Killer Robot Land" -- a land that may or may not have nuclear weapons.

Japan Plan For World's Tallest Building

Inspired by Mount Fuji, Taisei Construction Corporation has completed designs for construction of the world's tallest building. The X-Seed 4000 (no idea where that came from) would stand at approximately 13,123 feet (4 km), nearly 700 feet (213 m) taller than the real Mount Fuji. The next tallest buildings don't even break 2,000 feet, how puny! While likely to never be built, the X-Seed would have up to 800 floors, and be capable of housing between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people.
