Microsoft Street Slide
Research projects are always great since they broaden our perspective and all in all moves us forward- The ones that make me go: “Now why didn’t I think about that!!” are the ones that I believe will also succeed since they fill a gap that will make our lives easier. Think of life before GPS navigational systems or even maps…now take a look at the following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-_T949uSwU

Writing again?!
I has been a long time since I wrote. A lot of things happening, but none of them can explain my absence. It’s going to be a real challenge trying to write again, but I feel that I have no choice. I decided , as a resolution, to write at least two posts per month…

Excitement over Windows 7
It’s been a long time since I had last posted. A lot of things changed, both in my personal life and in general. One of the things that changed is that people are really excited (in a positive way) about the upcoming release of Microsoft’s new OS. I believe that this new wave of positive excitement was incited by Microsoft’s hard work on correctly marketing Windows 7. One such move is opening a Cafe in Paris to create additional buzz around the release. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/09/23/microsoft...

If you have a Bluetooth enable phone, then by using a piece of software from Pheonix you can teach your computer to lock and unlock-handsfree… http://www.phoenixfreeze.com/

Tides Turning
I find it somewhat funny to see how tides are turning. Apple used to be the medias darling,it was touted as innovative and cool while Microsoft was old and boring…These days, it seems that tides are starting to turn as all of a sudden Apple is no longer treated as nicely as it used to be. Take a look at the following video by the Onion: Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop With No Keyboard   Will this eventually also affect consumer perception?

Floating Sphere at Microsoft's Visitor Center
While reading my favorite blogs, I have found the following video that Long Zheng took at the Microsoft’s visitor center. The video is of a sphere that has information projected on it (3D). http://vimeo.com/2434792

Rumors,rumors and some more rumors…
It has been an odd week. First off, it has been a very long time since I last wrote, and I missed it. I can’t really say what it is about being able to write without really knowing if someone actually reads it but I do have to admit it’s fun. Second, it has been a week of rumors in Israel: it seems that someone from a certain software company, has decided to send an e-mail to all the employees of that company (actually only to the local branch) saying that a specific snack causes death in infants...
