I used to be fascinated by the idea of a voice interface to the computer. That was until I actually used one. It feels awkward and it’s slow. Yeah it has some use in specific applications, but for general use, I think it will never be. Back in 1983 Hewlett Packard released a computer called HP 150 that used touch-screens. My boss thought that I needed to go though their authorization courses to learn about this new revolutionary computer they where going to sell. So I was excited (this was before the mac). It was kind of fun to see that the attendees was fascinated and used the touch-sceen for the first fifteen minutes, but it was just to slow and uncomfortable to use, so everyone, including the teacher, started to use the keyboard. So I just wrote that computer off. And I’ve been skeptical about touch-screen input ever since. Until I saw this and was blown away! If a tablet computer had something like this I’d sell my body to science to get one. And science would probably reject the body and demand a refund. But then it’s to late, I’m dead and I have a tablet computer! Muhahahaa!
