Microsoft Surface: Both Versions of a Very Cool Concept

Weekends are traditionally kick-back times, so let’s take a look at an incredibly amazing new concept, and then laugh a little bit at ourselves and society, shall we?

Microsoft Surface is a concept that is absolutely cool. Imagine a large shiny surface, and imagine rearranging your digital world on it with your fingertips. All of your photographs, made larger, smaller, fancier. . . with your fingers. Maps, charts, graphs, diagrams, you name it, and you can manipulate them on the tabletop, with your fingers. Music? Yes, that, too. It’s as if you were catapaulted into a futuristic universe containing workable magic for YOU. Microsoft Surface: WOW.

And because we have a really well-defined, if not refined, sense of humor, we’re linking to something else, too. Because, you know, the mark of an idea that has “arrived” is the parody that starts to honor it.

Check out this hilarious Gizmodo parody.
