I didn’t have opportunity to watch this interview anytime before (I just didn’t know about it ) even tho it’s from May. I would like to share with you my thoughts after watching it. Not always we can see both Steve Jobs and Bill Gates seating next to each other and being interviewed.

The most interesting parts from the multitouch and natural user interface point of view (the one that I’m more interested in) are only those 3:

• part 6/9 Bill Gates talks about natural user interface and 3d apps, virtual world
• part 7/9 Steve Jobs talks about post-pc devices
• part 9/9 Bill Gates talks about natural user interface for seniors

But I would really recommend to watch all the parts, it’s worth it to see how Steve and Bill see the future of computing.

It seems that not only Jeff Han and other multitouch related company’s think about natural user interface. But also big players like Microsoft with surface computing or Apple with iPhone and probably future multitouch apps maybe OS are trying to add and invent something in this field too.

It also seems that for Bill Gates the real future of computing is in natural user interface and 3d applications, 3d enviroments like virtual worlds where people can collaborate with each other. I’m not going to talk about it this post, but I hope I will come back to this topic in near future. I just want to point out that natural user interface and 3d seems to be the future of human-computer interaction.

What I also like is what Steve and Bill are saying about passion to what you are doing in your life (part 8/9). So that “You have to have a lot of passion for what you are doing and reason for that is because it’s so hard so that if you don’t any rational person would give up”. I totally agree with what Steve is saying and I wish that to anyone: to have a passion to something you work on in whatever field you are working on.

Ok that is a long post :-) That’s all for now. You can watch the interview videos below. Enjoy.

Just to let You know I just added new page on blog with my GPG key/fingerprint. I also signed up at box.net (web-based file sharing service). What’s nice about this service is that you get 1GB of storage for free. Using WordPress you can also embbed box.net widget (Flash) and show blog visitors your public shared files. I placed that widget in bottom-right side of my blog just next to Flickr photos. Enjoy :-)

It’s couple months since my last post. I was busy with MacLibre, then with MacLibre webpage. I was on holiday in September and in November new year at my university started. But I decided that I should try to find couple minutes a day to write new posts. Starting from today I’ll try to post some daily review of my work, projects, studies, news etc.

Anyway I changed blog theme and I added some new feeds to the right sidebar (my Google Reader shared items, my picasa web albums, and my flick photos). Enjoy.

Ok folks this is my first wordpress blog post just for testing purpose ;-) I will start writing regularly soon I think.
