What do you think about the news from last night?

"Company CEO Jeff Bezos says he hopes to soon deploy an armada of mini-drones able to drop small packages at your doorstep."

Read more at Industry Week: Amazon Unveils Futuristic Drone Delivery Plan. There's a video to watch, too, if you're so inclined.

At first it almost sounds like an April Fool's Day joke. Or maybe it's just a publicity stunt.

We already have problems getting approval to fly UAVs in civil airspace. Bezos would have to overcome that obstacle. The second page of the article quotes Amazon saying rules could be in place in 2015.

"FAA chief Michael Huerta earlier said he expects some 7,500 small unmanned aircraft buzzing in the U.S. skies in the next five years."

Here's a funny take on the plan that we've already seen on Twitter (click to enlarge).
