A Glimpse into the Future

future

Want to show you a few things that I’ve seen lately that excite me. These are a little glimpse into the near future. Some of the stuff that is being designed just now is so intuitive, and user friendly that it looks like there is going to be an exponential increase in general productivity for many years to come.

First up is Microsoft’s Gizmodo. There is not too much details about this yet but below is a recent ‘leaked’ video of how it will work.

Second up, and something I’m really excited about, is Google’s new ‘Wave’ platform. This is being pitched as ‘the new email’ and certainly looks that part. And what’s even more bizarre it will be open source when released.

Lastly. A new system from a company called Savant. This is more about home entertainment and about having total control of your household appliances. I love it!!!!!!!!

I want it all now!!!

iPhone Album

iPhone Album is in the making

I recently received a voucher that I could use in various shops and, being the geek that I am, I went to WHSMITH and got myself an iTunes top-up card. There are tones of apps out there that I’d love to have so thought that, if I got a wee bit of credit to play with, I could have some fun.

Last night I bought this fancy app. It’s a four track for your iPhone. I’ve been playing the guitar since I was 16 (I watched this show and became determined to learn). I’m not that great, but I give it a bash. I wish I was a better singer.

Anyway, when I got this app last night I went straight into recording. Here is the result of 15 minutes messing about:

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

I’m going to do more and post them on here, eventually having an iPhone Album. Who knows, they might be on iTunes themselves one day. haha
