This Week in the Future, April 9-13, 2012 Baarbarian

There's already Angry Birds in space--why not Fruit Ninja in space? At least, that's the thesis put forth (probably; I'm not an art critic) by Baarbarian in this week's This Week in the Future illustration. While you ponder the significance of the precise arrangement and variety of sliced fruit, we'll take this opportunity to wish you a good weekend.

Want to win this sliced Baarbarian illustration on a T-shirt? It's easy! The rules: Follow us on Twitter (we're @PopSci) and retweet our This Week in the Future tweet. One of those lucky retweeters will be chosen to receive a custom T-shirt with this week's - http://pulse.me/s/878dO

10 Ways to Find More Hours in Your Day

We all wish we had just a bit more time.

Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar, or get a new qualification.
