Technology porn from Microsoft
In the latest in their series of Future Vision videos (see the one from 2009 here and the whole channel here) Microsoft again provide their take on how technology will progress and help us in day-to-day tasks in the coming years. If one thing is clear in these videos, it’s that there will be a [...]
