What makes this new wireless electricity technology important is the possibilities it creates for traveling and working in places when it could be difficult to plug into electricity. If wireless electricity stations become as prevalent as wireless Internet stations, people with laptops could work as long as they wanted and wherever they wanted. For journalists, this could mean never being tied down by needing to recharge batteries. Instead, they would be able to chase down the stories when seconds matter. If your cell phone dies in the middle of an interview with a source, that could really put a damper on your story.
To the rest of society, the magnet technology that fuels the Wytricity could signal the ability to collect and transfer power more efficiently than we do today. It's always been a goal to be able to capture and transfer wind power from windy areas to other areas that need power. Also, it could bring solar power into higher levels of use.
