Minus having an Edit undo function in real life there is something nice about being able to organize your physical workspace into various piles of things and stick a post it note to your bulletin board or computer screen to put things into plain sight. Though its been around for sometime for Windows they recently released this cool little application on the Mac.

I love having this program on my macbook pro especially when i’m doing my usual weekend routine of surfing and catching up on emails, rss and the occasional creative or programming project.

I remembered the first time I watched Minority Report and couldn’t wait for the day when interfaces and hardware became available that would allow me to interact and control my digital life in such a dynamic way.

Intel’s 3D Touch-Screen Display they exhibited at CES 2009

yeah so I need one of these right now along with a hardware guide so I can start programming for it. We have already figured out gestural navigations using webcams, wii remotes and other ways to control an interface through movements and we are ready to start to implement some of our kick ass drawings and ideas now. Especially with Adobe Alchemy that will let you use C/C++ code which is compiled into Actionscript 3. With the right hardware in place the possibilities are endless.

Like the Intel spokesperson said “We don’t make products we just make the technology to support them”

Ok well give me one and pair me up with one of your engineers for a day and I will pimp your hardware!
