The Microsoft Kin is Dead

500x_dead-kin
Apparently, Microsoft was trying to sell a device called the Kin. As you might have guessed prior to launching it, it failed.

Turn Your Body Into Your I/O with Skinput (video)

Skinput-body-into-keypad
esearchers at Microsoft have taken a third tactic: using the electric signals on the skin’s surface that correspond to muscle movement as input commands. All three are pretty novel approaches to controlling your technology through your body, and any one might make headway in the next few years. Together, they suggest that the best way to take advantage of miniaturized mobile devices is to make them part of you.

Google Says Microsoft Waging Proxy War -- InformationWeek

Pot calling the kettle black anyone - who do you root for? These gorilla wars should distract them both from where the real stuff is getting developed, right? Er . . . . Still, who do you think is the less evil?

Microsoft Natal is coming - no controller, just move your body

Put your hand behind your back, and Natal's probability logic locates your avatar's arm the same way, based on the motion of your body. The product, Microsoft says, can read your body and render your motion with less time lag than the Wii, which requires a controller.

Windows Phone 7 Gets Early Thumbs Up -- InformationWeek

Windowsphone_175
Is it inevitable that Microsoft will win in the end? Is this phone good enough to win without marketing muscle? Will it still depend on the wide-open app developer community vs. Apple's Imperial closet? And speed!

What Should Microsoft Do? (who do you root for?)

Who do you root for? What would Google do? What would Jesus do? Who's more evil, now? I'd say that's just another scorpion and frog question. Put them in a pit, the two scorpions, and we can place bets. Meanwhile, who do you root for?

Have you reached gadget overload?

For lots of people, the Apple iPad comes just at the moment when they are already juggling too many devices. And Apple is trying, as they always do, to carve out a new spot. Are you out of room?? (too??)

Mind and Body; Work and Fun - Microsoft doesn't get it

Microsoft is being foolish to continue to separate business use from entertainment. Work and play, mind and body, these distinctions are as hazardous to Microsoft as they are to you and me. Mind must stay grounded in the body to stay sane, and work is as central as play to life and love. If it isn't fun to use, it won't do well at work either dummies.

From Slates To Phones, Ballmer Says Microsoft's Got It

Really? This is a no-lose strategy to keep the stock price high, but if Microsoft's "got it", do they really "get it?" In an economy addicted to disruption, can they de-institutionalize enough to keep both businesses and media consumers happy? Or will the internal contradictions just keep manifesting in embodiments at war with themselves?

Are you excited by technology again?

Making the computer personal again, there is a new Google iPhone killer, a new Microsoft bi-fold tablet, a rumored crazy-cool Apple tablet, and ubiquitous wireless. Has there ever been a better time to hurry up and wait before purchase???
