Gadgets, Microsoft

Not even scratching the Surface

It’s not often these days that you see a piece of technology that makes your draw drop, yet Microsoft have done that to me with Microsoft Surface. If there’s a better piece of gadget eye candy I’d like to see it (although Scoble saw it two years ago the showoff!).

Microsoft Surface is a touchscreen computer that allows you to interact with pieces of digital content as if they were physical objects on the table – to move, expand and even transfer content between physical devices, to create a music playlist through drag and drop using your fingers. It even recognises physical objects on the table and allows you to interact with them, from a wifi camera to a beer glass (so you can order another).

Check out the video below to see it in action.
