Kinect SDK
0Microsoft released the software developer kit for their Kinect sensor.
The Kinect is an impressive piece of hardware and the intuitive interface that MS has built into Xbox 360 is very cool. I’m looking forward to what we’ll see on the desktop as this device moves into the office.
Minority Report – we’re almost there!
Plus 1 for B&N
0So it appears Google has added the Plus 1 button to everything now by allowing partner sites to add the button to their content too. Neat idea.
