Google Goggles

Google has announced the release of “Google Goggles“. Now, we can use it to search visually, in addition to text search and voice search. It’s amazing, and it works by just taking a picture with a phone and search with it. Nevertheless, not all searches could return proper result, as it’s still new. According to google, animals, furniture, and apparel wont work on goggles. (*Note that goggle is only available on Android 1.6+, and you could get it from Android Market)

10/GUI – Novel Multitouch Paradigm + Desktop Interface

Few days ago, i have came across a website 10/GUI. The author – R. Clayton Miller, has proposed a novel multi-touch paradigm together with a redesigned desktop interface. The idea makes use of multi-touch technology on an area around keyboard instead of the computer screen, which solves all the problem related to screen (e.g. obstruction of your hands on the screen). Other then the multi-touch, he has also invented a new desktop interface, which could help facilitating fingers interaction on the computer rather than the now-a-days cursor-oriented windows. Anyway, it’s really worth you the time to watch the video they provide to give you a better understanding on this new technology.
