Remember the scene in “Minority Report” where Tom Cruise’s character analyses the evidence provided by the Pre-Cogs using the touch screen interface? That has now become a reality. (Surprisingly) Microsoft are behind a new technology called Surface which allows multi-touch surface interaction to control anything that can be manipulated through a digital interface.

The demonstration shows how you can take a photo and by placing the camera and your mobile phone on a coffee table you can transfer between them without the need for a PC and usb cables.

I normally don’t get blown away by technology, I tend to get no more excited than “that’s nice”, but this truly is amazing. The potential uses for this are near infinite. With more and more of our lives being transferred onto digital devices, having the ability to control and interact with them without having to sit in front of a computer will be awesome.

Judge for your self:

Someone sent me this movie which i thought was brilliant.

I have to let you know the level at which USB dongle inventors seem to think consumers are at.

Behold, … wait for it… the Mouse Jiggler!

Want to know exactly what a Mouse Jiggler does? It jiggles your mouse to prevent your screensaver from kicking in.

Where do you begin? Why swap 15 seconds of your life which is what it would take to turn your screensaver off with a pointless piece of crap at a cost of $30? Did market research turn up users who would consider purchasing one?

Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself.

The sort you get sent from friends on a monday morning.

Found this funny so thought I would share it with you.
