If you haven't seen it, you must watch this demo by Microsoft researcher Blaise Aguera y Arcas of Seadragon and Photosynth from the TED conference. Mindblowing.

Heads up: After you hit "post" things may be slow and you may get an error. Most likely, your comment did post. Apologies. I'm looking for a fix.

I hadn't thought about TED for some time, and thanks to you, I spent a good bit of my Sunday attending brainiac lectures. I noticed that wasn't the only presenter who explored the possibilities of information architecture.

Check out Hans Rosling's remarkable infographics:

Wow, that is definitely in the mindblowing realm of experiences. I am blown away by the advances in technology that keeping presenting themselves. The world is definitely on a revolutionary path when it comes to pushing the boundaries of computers and their functionality. The presenter hit the nail right on the head when he explained that they are working towards getting people to look beyond the constraints of "monitor real estate". The applications that will come out of this technology are going to be wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing this.

cheers
