Sean's Idea Kitchen

A place where I can cook up ideas.
Two Platforms that I'd love to play with.

After watching this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FJHYqE0RDg on the Android Demo, I have to say that the touch portion of the demo is nice.  Who knows, maybe I could create a "copy and paste" program for the touch device and win some of that 10 million dollar prize money. 

But what I'd really like is to work (actually I think it would be more play than work) with the Surface device.  Check out this video where Robert Levy shows off some of the hot SDK action of the ScatterView control.

So I thought that gesture and surface / touch based computing was going to take about 5 to 10 years to hit.  It's coming and it's going to be all around us.  Phones, Kiosks, Surface, Blueboards, everywhere.

 

So with all that coming, I wonder if anyone is working on a gesture dictionary for actions. And how people will deal with the device clash between small form factor (phones) and large form factors?
