The heck with Web 2.0. This is simply amazing, multi-touch sensing! I ran across this video after following aditya's link in the "time travel" thread to the Imagining the Tenth Dimension (http://www.tenthdimension.com/). I can see Apple running with this like they did with the iPhone (http://www.apple.com/iphone/).

Yea, it is old. I remember posting it year ago or so.

But well, even tho it's old, it's stilly pretty nice technology demo. Of course it's pretty useless in real world. It's simply too complicated to use. You can do everything what he does with much simpler ways with one hand.

The only really interesting thing is the multi point touch sensor. That is future. And that will be very useful someday once someone makes useful software to use it's abilities.

The only good thing that apple has made is an i-pod. Every other apple product annoys me. But the video is super cool.

Yup she will be the most powerful rocket ever built, even more powerful than my favorite the Saturn V. I cant wait to see her fly in 2017.
