Microsoft's Envisioning Lab Reveals The Future Of Productivity. The most unbelievable part of Microsoft's eye-catching Productivity Future Vision video, released earlier this week, isn't the see-through refrigerator, the software app that discovers a product design breakthrough on its own, or the plants growing on the wall of the ethereally white office.
(That last one, actually, is a real office on the Microsoft campus.) No, the most unbelievable part is how clean every surface is--in the car, in the office, and even in a kitchen where a bake sale project is underway. David Jones, acting director of the video's creator, Microsoft's Envisioning Lab, says it's a common criticism, but then again, nearly every surface can act as a crisp, contextually savvy display.
Wouldn't you keep your counter more clean if you could watch Hulu on it?
Houses.
