Wonderful article, but link entered into text field rather than URL field. <a href="http://scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=208" rel="nofollow">http://scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=208</a> (clickable version). Beautiful explanation of the Quantum Fourier Transform and some practical aspects of quantum computing without any domain-specific math.

Unfortunately he did not credit Feynman for the 'clock' analogy, who I believe originated this way of describing quantum processes.
