Brightec paper lights up your life

Ah, who can forget the amount of fun one had as a kid with glow-in-the-dark stickers? There are some of us who still bring photo albums that carry cherished memories on camping trips, viewing them with a torch under a blanket of stars, but what happens when you forget to pack in the all-important torch? Apparently, there is a new paper from Brightec that is capable of charging from any ambient light source within minutes, offering up to a few hours of luminosity thanks to a patented pigment within. This funky paper is available in 4″ x 6″ packs and 8″ x 11″ sheets that retail for $10 and $20 respectively. I’m not too sure if the luminosity is enough to view photos in pitch black darkness, but it would make a swell greeting card material.
