Sitecore Fetch Squad

This post falls slightly (well… quite a bit, to be honest :P) off topic. But outsite the Sitecore realm of computing my eyes are very clearly focused on what I personally believe to be a big thing in the years to come; Surface Computing. Or - at least - that’s what the Microsoft term for it is.

Now I know we’re all gobsmacked about the Sitecore 6 Page Editor facilities. But try and take a look at this, and tell me (honestly) you couldn’t see technology like this implemented in a system like Sitecore.

While I’m not even at a point (yet) where I can get my hands on the Microsoft Surface SDK, I know myself well enough to realise - once this technology becomes more widely available, I won’t be able to keep my nose out of it. Don’t take that literally

Could you imagine working with the structure of your site in this manner? Organising your Sitecore Media Library? Drag-and-dropping renderings onto your layouts?

I’m rambling, I’m sure. But ideas like this is what drives great development. Anyone else?
