G-Speak - Minority Report is now here...

I've been doing a bit of work lately with touch and Surface systems and really hope that we can start to see this Minority-report-style tech hit the market in an accessible way. When the first systems hit (think mall event instillations or conference centers), it's going to be very tough to ignore.

Nice spot. Although I can see some groups and associations getting pretty upset with this in the coming weeks. Found via copyranter.

Creative Inspiration (5 Links)

It's been awhile since I've posted. I've really missed it but have been a bit slammed on the work front. But I do have good news. I've been checking out all the latest awards sites and have 5 links that you've got to check out (these are all from the Webby's but there are a ton of good repositories out there).

So here are my favorite five (in no particular order):

• Banners that actually are useful (vs. ones that you never see / wish were never there) - from VISA
• Lonely Planet and Surface come together to create one helluva book experience
• The Economist shows people where great ideas come from (from great people)
• Nike Japan uses some cool technology to launch their flagship store
• NFB Canada tells water stories in a way you've never seen (shout out to a former creative colleague)

Have you checked out any awards lately? What's your favorite?
