Very nice article, fun and informative.

There are several products that can coat materials to make them hydrophobic. "Neverwet" and "Ultra-Ever Dry" are two. Check out their videos on youtube.

Yeah, I linked to Neverwet in the post. The video demos are amazing although in practice I hear that the coating fades pretty quickly. But it's cool to see commercial applications of superhydrophobic surfaces.
