I "rediscovered" an interesting nano company, Natural Nano, that utilizes nanoparticles that are made the natural way, by Mother Nature. In fact, they have discovered halloysite nanotubes in clay found in Utah. The company is planning on using their halloysite nanotubes for a number of applications, ranging from cosmetics to plastics. Their website claims that over 200 commercial applications are possible.Natural Nano will be participating in an upcoming meeting in Chciago, NanoCommerce/SEMI NanoForum 2005 (Nov. 1-3).

I think we could learn a lot about design from nature, considering she is the first nanotechnologist.
