Microsoft Surface


this was just announced last night.
it's kind of MS's version of what Apple is doing with the iPhone interface.
it's definitely dope. kinda i, robot-esque.

http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
click on 'experience surface' and watch the vids.

looks cool but what's the point? It's like these companies are just competing to deliver "cool" technology that is pointless, to me at least. Oh wow I can type on a virtual phone keyboard or do finger paintings on my video screen coffee table. I'm just not sold on the benefit of all this touch screen mess.

the fact that you can affect more than one thing on screen at a time is great.

That is beyond bad ass. WOW! The camera to computer to cell phone was awsome. No connections of wires and instant transfer is images.


Can you imagine what this would do to restaurants? No need for waiters. Seriously every table would be this platform and oders would be placed by customers in exact detail without mistakes.




Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

LOL I watched that a few hours ago at lunch, was gonna post it when I saw the thread bumped.



A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Total recall.




Have you ever noticed how crayons are a lot like M&M's? All the colors tend to taste the same.
