Just ignore the logo at the end...

Más que un montaje de una visión futurista es una metáfora de las tendencias y realidades del presente respecto a Microsoft como sofware.

Nice vision, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to be like that.

thats some dum shitty thing!"£$%^&*

Le futur de Microsoft

Visión de Microsoft para el año 2019. El clip fue mostrado en Wharton Business Technology Conference y se llama 2019. En este Microsoft interpola diversas tecnologías, tales como la investigación de superficie, papel electrónico, teléfonos móviles, video, pantalla táctil, mando a distancia, paredes increíble, manos varitas. Como dice Arthur C. Clarke, "cualquier tecnología suficientemente avanzada es indistinguible de la magia", y esto es magia.

Desto mer vår vardag blir digitaliserad, desto mer integrerad blir den. Men hur långt kan allt gå?

Microsoft släppte för inte så länge sedan en video som visar deras vision för 2019. En värld där allt är bara ett click bort. Oavsett vad du håller i handen (i princip).

Så om du redan idag känner att du inte ligger i framkant med din webbplats, känner att du inte lyckats integrera mobilen i ditt erbjudande kanske det är dags att börja tänka långsiktigt. Dina kunder kommer inte att vänta på dig.

People sometimes ask me why I dislike Microsoft. The answer is simple: I don’t — I’ve just been disappointed with much of what it has done in the past decade.This disappointment stems from the 1990s, when I was a big fan of many Microsoft products (and incidentally, could not stand Apple products). But over the past ten years, I’ve slowly transitioned away from almost everything made by the company. It’s not what I set out to do, it’s just happened that way because better products have come along — products not made by Microsoft.And it’s frustrating, because with billions of dollars spent each year in research and development, it’s not like the company doesn’t have the means to innovate and make great products. So what does it lack? The vision? Well, if the video below is any indication, no.This video is a clip from presentation given yesterday by Microsoft’s Business Division president Stephen Elop at the Wharton Business Technology Conference. It shows what Microsoft thinks the world may look like in a decade from now, in 2019. (There is a longer, 5 minute version of the video on the blog i started something as well.)While obviously, all of the products in this video are very much concepts, they show a Microsoft that seems to have a vision for the next decade. Carrying out that vision will be a whole other matter, of course, and so Microsoft needs to focus.And it quickly needs to realize that focus doesn’t include wasting huge amounts of time and money on fights it will never win. Fights like the ones it’s bogged down in with Google for Internet search and advertising, and with Apple in portable media players.Products like its Surface computer show that Microsoft has the potential fulfill the promises made by the video above. And if it does that, I’ll have no problem once again using Microsoft products in my life. I’ve said it about Apple before, and the same applies to Microsoft: it’s not about the company, it’s about the product.
